(62,325 posts)are doing something, but whenever any political party gets involved they start controlling, holding people back, and that's exactly why OWS came about. Moveon and many of the other so-called 'left' organizations sold out for access and money and were a huge disappointment. By 2004 a lot of people had had it with Moveon, after they had promised to do everything possible to help with Election Fraud. I remember trying to contact them along with a lot of other people, but they went totally silent. Clearly they were told not get involved in election fraud.
They had a poll up I remember, asking members what was most important to them that needed their attention. The response was 'Election Fraud' by nearly ninety percent of the responders, but they never even bothered to answer.
Anyone who remembers the devastation of that election knows the passion people were willing to put into stopping Diebold et al. But that was when these 'left' organizations abandoned ship and many people got the message, and stopped accepting their emails.
We definitely do not want that to happen to the Occupy movement.
