[IMC-Editorial] Asking for your help in promoting DC No-War Action 26-October

[Thomas Pfotzer]

Hi,

My name's Tom Pfotzer. I live outside DC, and I'm really anxious to 
deliver a monumental, huge, world-shaking assembly of U.S. citizens at 
the anti-War rally this October.


The British deliver 350,000 and we come up with maybe 20,000. There's 
something wrong with this picture.

However, it doesn't seem like we're currently on-track to deliver up 
that action. There could be a number of reasons for this, and I want 
your help figuring out what's going on. Possible reasons include:

a.      There's just not enough Americans who oppose the war
b.       The people organizing this event are under-resourced 
(knowledge, experience, time, money, motivation)
c.     There's diffusion of intent; some groups want x, others want y
d.     No one't taken it upon themselves to perform a co-ordinating 
function amoung all the stakeholders, and get this thing off the ground

Maybe it's something else.

I want to help. Can you put me in touch with someone that is playing a 
leadership role so I can pick out something I can do?

I can:
    write, promote, telephone, speak, cajole, inspire, direct, plan, 
organize, coordinate
    build websites, e-mail distribution systems
    write and distribute press releases
   recruit volunteers and get them doing effective things

I also want to put into practice some of the ideas I've posted on Indy 
about how to promote Indy itself. When I went to the rally in DC this 
past weekend, an awful lot of people didn't know about Indy. That needs 
to change. We need to find a way to reach into the mainstream, and give 
them some more alternatives for getting information.

Please contact me at:

Thanks.
