(An innovative fundraising idea! Thanks edrie! - promoted by SFBrianCL)
 Hello, all! this is day two of the "pearls for phil" fundraiser that i first offered on dailykos on friday and have posted the offer again today!
i am offering (personally, cuz i have no cash but i DO have pearls!) a strand of pearls to the person making the highest donation to the phil angelides campaign between now and friday, aug 17! i am ALSO offering a second strand to be given to a second "winner" (taken from random drawing to include all those who donate ANY amount to the campaign during the same period! all you have to do to be a part of this fun - raiser is to email me confirmation of your donation (as little as $5.01 will get you in!) and on Sunday (i work all day sat), i'll pull the highest donor and then draw the second winner!
here's what they look like------------------>
why am i doing this? please check beneath the fold and i'll explain it all! |
| after reading neutron's diary about the co chair of dianne feinstein's campaign endorsing schwarznegger, i was livid! i am tired of "big money" buying elections! i want to see elections return to the hands of the voters - for OUR votes far outnumber the ONE vote of the angela bradstreets of the world - the problem, however, is that our "money" doesn't buy the same benefit!
so, since i have little "cash" - it hit me! i have pearls! i string them, i wholesale them, i HAVE them! by making this offer, i am hoping that i can "donate" much more than my meager "cash" donation - i am hoping to be able, through you all, to raise much more money than i could ever personally donate and, at the same time, give something in thanks to those who make it possible for ME to "donate"!
so, make a donation and you, too, could have a strand of beautiful pearls worth an appraised value of $500 or higher! as i said on kos, i'll even throw in that really nifty leather box to keep your new pearls safe and beautiful! after you donate, send me an email with the confirmation (thank you) note from the campaign (or copied check - minus personal stuff) and you're in the running! my email is takebackcongress2006 at gmail dot com. [privacy disclousure: NOTHING will be done with your email other than confirming and thanking you personally! i promise! won't forward, won't disclose, won't tell!]
good luck and please help california terminate the terminator by supporting phil angelides for governor! oh, we DO have donations in, btw! thank you to the wonderful folk who have sent money!
i'll post a new diary every day until the end of the "contest".
thanks, again! from me, from california and from ALL of us who want to take back america! |
