The day after thanksgiving is traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year. Americans spend exorbitant amounts of money on this day. People go into debt buying gifts for their friends, buying items made in China.
How about instead of going into debt, or instead of buying nothing, we all ask for a better future for America? People joke about wanting "peace on earth" for Christmas.
What if it doesn't have to be a joke?
I'm asking my family and friends to instead of purchasing gifts, to buy a better future for America by donating to Dennis Kucinich's campaign. I myself will be also cinching my belt to donate my $400 food stipend that I get from the campaign.
If we can get 10,000 people to donate 100 bucks a peice, that's one million dollars.
If we can get 70,000, that's 7 million.
If we can get 100,000 to donate 100 bucks, that's 10 million dollars. And suddenly we're a front runner. Overnight.
Please spread the word, that the Day After Thanksgiving, Black Friday, we're going to buy a better Future for America.
