Can you spare $5 for John Kerry and John Edwards?

[Skinner]

TODAY IS $5 DAY!

We get over 20,000 visitors to this website every day. If everyone gave $5, we could easily raise $100,000 for the Kerry/Edwards ticket.

Maybe you haven't donated to Kerry/Edwards yet because you don't think you can afford it. Maybe you can't afford $50, but can you spare $5?

Maybe you already donated to Kerry/Edwards, and you weren't planning to donate again. But think about it: You can spare another $5, can't you?

For a campaign that's raising millions of dollars, one $5 donation won't make much difference. But if we all give $5, we can raise thousands and thousands of dollars. By donating together, we can leverage our numbers and have a real impact!

And while you're donating, you can sign up for the Kerry/Edwards email list, and you can sign up to volunteer. Everyone can help out in some way.

MAKE YOUR DONATION COUNT!

I have set up a personal John Kerry supporter page, under my real name "David Allen." If you donate to Kerry's campaign through my page, we can easily keep track of the donation total from DU members! Just click this link to visit my page and send your donation:

My supporter page: http://volunteer.johnkerry.com/member/178307

Look for the link on the right-hand side of the page that says "Make Your Contribution Now."

It's only $5. You can do it.

Thank you.

2. Oh heck, why not? You should release Grovelbot on the board.

:) Going to make a donation now. Thanks!

:kick:

[Skinner]

7. That's not a bad idea, actually.

I worry that people might have GrovelBot blindness. But it's worth considering.

[curse10]

8. nah- people love the grovelbot!

he's so cute and cuddly!

[Misunderestimator]

12. I actually got a crush on Grovelbot last time... I miss him.

[wryter2000]

24. Grovelbot, Grovelbot, Grovelbot eom

[curse10]

3. well, I've donated for the next 5 days

my first monetary donation to a campaign :-)

[Misunderestimator]

4. Congratulations.... !!

It's good to be part of the solution. :thumbsup:

[southpaw]

5. I actually donated last week...

But I think I can spare another $5

You really should activate Grovel Bot. Its a worthy enough cause and what with all the Robot-mania (courtesy of I Robot) he should be allowed to get out and flaunt his circuitry!

[Screaming Lord Byron]

11. Do they take donations from us foreign types?

Would I cause an international incident?

[Misunderestimator]

13. Nope... wish they did... Kerry's campaign would be swimming in cash

if that were allowed. Makes sense actually... don't want you ferners controlling our elections (well, actually, in this case, I do). :)

[Screaming Lord Byron]

15. Didn't think so. But I wanted to.

I'll find a way around these perfectly reasonable laws :evilgrin:

[wryter2000]

22. Can MoveOn take your money?

They're after the same goal. Thanks for wanting to help us!

[Screaming Lord Byron]

25. I'll check it out, I know a local woman in my province who works for them

16. Kick, and a Question

Your page HAS to have more than 52 visits. Is the counter broken?

:kick:

DTH

[Skinner]

The counter does not work properly

My page received more than 52 donations in the last two hours.

[ronnykmarshall]

17. Done

I donated $200 over the weekend, but I'll give in another $5 for DU.

[DS1]

18. BAH! I spared $25 the other day and didn't so much as a thank you

from Mr. JK :grr:

/not that it'll stop me from doing it again

[GOPisEvil]

29. Really? He called me, and thanked me profusely.

I couldn't get rid of the guy.

:7

Seriously, I got an e-mail from them acknowledging my contribution. I just sent 'em another 25 bucks.

[gold_bug]

20. I just did it.

we should also remind/encourage our friends to donate a few dollars.

[wryter2000]

21. Do it, do it, do it!

I contributed a few bucks. This is a fabulous idea. Thanks, Skinner. :yourock:

[Westegg]

32. I tried to donate, but...

...they said there was a problem with my credit card. Repeatedly. THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH MY CREDIT CARD. I've got virtually unlimited credit and have ZERO debt. So I guess I'll just toss a tenner to the next Kerry kid I see on the street.

Oh well. Would have loved to have been part of your DU club, David.

[Skinner]

34. You are part of the club.

Just cuz you had a little trouble with their website doesn't mean you can't be part of the club. :thumbsup:
