Forget about apathy. Progressives must vote this cycle or risk the well being of the country. PERIOD.
The Tea Party is on a roll with its upset Senate primary victory in Delaware. If the rest of us don’t start raising hell, the Tea Party will have us living it.
Are you mad as hell but don’t want to join the Tea Party? Do you still want to get the change you voted for in 2008? That’s most Americans, but the right wing is the only wing talking about its anger.
Public outrage is the most powerful force in the world if you know how to leverage it and turn it into power. That’s why I wrote The Progressive’s Guide To Raising Hell, published today by Chelsea Green, to show average Americans how their common anger can be turned into power using the force of public opinion online and offline.
Award-winning filmmaker Robert Greenwald made this short video about Raising Hell and its battle-proven, step-by-step tactics that artfully sums up the book’s essence.
I have spent two decades fighting and winning campaigns against insurance companies, Big Oil, utilities, banks, and corrupt politicians. The tactics of turning anger into change are the same regardless of whether you are trying to win a Senate primary, pass a ballot measure or get an insurer to pay a claim.
Change is no simple matter in America politics, as Americans have recently learned so well.
