Women for Hillary Rally & Stroller Parade ~ 5.10.08

I know, I know, it seems like an Obama-mama-rama around here these days.  Now for something completely different.  Mama may rhyme better with Obama, but Senator Clinton has the mamas on the mind and there's nothing wrong with that.  Everything right with that, in fact.  I love that a Presidential candidate so clearly sees where we mamas fit into this whole thing.  While I am undoubtedly an Obamamama, If Hillary pulls it out I'll for sure be working to get her into that Oval Office.  She has a terrific track record and long history supporting women and children.

So bring your completed ballot the Women for Hillary Rally & Stroller Parade this Saturday and mail it with loads of other Pdx women for Hillary.  And don't forget your stroller, mamas, and of course your children, too.  There'll be a kids area, face painting, balloons, and famous people saying important things and singing, too.  All part of a healthy democracy!  Actually, there are some very impressive women who'll be there - mostly long-time advisors to Senator Clinton.  You'll hear from Ann Lewis, Senior Advisor, Ellen Malcolm, Emily's List Founder, and our very own incredibly impressive Judge Betty Roberts.

Details. It's this Saturday,5.10 @ Matt Dishman Community Center in inner NE Portland - 77 NE Knott.  RSVP via e-mail or just show up.  Loads of event info on Clinton's campaign website.  And if you've got friends in Ashland... this show is playing again this Sunday from 2:30-4.

It Takes a Village - So Spread the Word.  Wasn't it Senator Clinton who wrote that book?  Well, here's your chance to live it out: download the event flyer and post it here, there, and everywhere.  But be warned: it is seriously pink.  Download email_flyer_portland__in_color_final32.pdf

Power In Numbers - And We Got Numbers, Mamas. I like the idea of mailing my ballot with a bunch of other women who are into this election like no other.  And marching for a candidate I believe in with my stroller and my kids - a great way to show how many of us mamas are actively voting for progressive policies that benefit families.  Because there's power in numbers, mamas.  If they don't see or hear how many of us really care about this stuff, we won't make the front burner, mamas.  There's a lot of competition for that front burner, mamas, and I plan to be on it.  Right there, right in front, getting what we need.

Nice article. Glad you're supporting Hillary. If you check out the following article, you'll find tons of links and some unreported but huge revelations about who's behind the Obama candidacy. If you can share this piece with other folks, that would be great. The mainstream media certainly isn't on top of it. All the best from a friend in San Francisco.
