"Buck the System!
Dear Friends,

I’m ready to buck a political system that has left our state nearly bankrupt.

But I know one voter can’t do it alone. One political leader can’t do it alone. And one campaign certainly can’t do it the old way – by relying on a handful of special-interest contributions.

Buck the System
That’s why I am asking you to help me buck the failed California political system by giving $5 right now to help change California.
By joining us today, you will help us run the kind of campaign that will do more than win one election. You will help us finally win the important policy victories that will move California forward.

If we unite by the thousands, we will have the power to set a new direction for California.

If you share my vision for universal health care, for real support of our schools and colleges, for protecting our environment and for jumpstarting our economy – then please help me Buck the System by joining us today.

As Mayor of San Francisco, I know a little bit about how to get things done – even in tough times. I’m proud that San Francisco is the only city in America implementing universal health care. Working with a broad coalition of environmental groups, we are making our city a national leader in renewable energy and environmental stewardship. We’re using sound fiscal practices to protect our schools. And we are creating tens of thousands of new high-wage jobs with smart economic policies.

Much of our local success rests on our ability to organize thousands of supporters for these bold policies. We could overcome the political resistance to change because we stood strong together.

I know it will take the same kind of bottom-up approach to make change in Sacramento. That’s why we are already organizing grassroots support in every corner of California. And that’s why I’m asking you for your help.

It is going to take tens of thousands of Californians like you and me to make change in Sacramento. And I would be honored to work with you to Buck the System.

I hope you will join our growing grassroots army today by becoming a $5 member of our campaign.

Sincerely,

Gavin Newsom

It Is Finally Here!

Today is the day that the issue of the newspaper, I had previously mentioned I was going to be in, came out. I just got a chance to sit down and read the article. It is short, but good. I am in there as a quoted guest of a guest speaker that visited our college. There are absolutely no pictures of the event, though the photographer was clicking left and right. Still, it is a good article overall. A professor of another college, and professional in the world of counseling and stress management, gave a PowerPoint presentation at a luncheon put on by the school I attend. She focused on stress reducing tools and activities to help reduce the stress of today's college student. My quote? Later. ; ) Back to lab work for me. -SD
