Does Cindy have "marketing"?

[BeTheChange]

One of the things that Republicans do better is create glossy marketing plans that the masses swallow whole.

I definately dont think that Cindy needs to go that route... but does she have call-ins to Air America scheduled for tomorrow? Does she have literature for the press that might show up to put everything in a nutshell for them?

Do demonostrators send out press releases? Are there more then a few people trying their assess off to do a good job involved at this point? How do we get the bodies that are needed? How many bodies are needed for the American public to notice?

Why arent stations like Free Speech TV and Al Gore's new station there? How do we get them there? Are sound bites being sent out to talk radio hosts with literature explaining what is going on? Even bad press is good.. ya know?

Is she lined up to speak with Amy Goodman on Democracy now?

What are the campus radio stations? Do we have people involved in the movement to get this jackass out of office that send out sound bytes and news clips to campus radio... or other popular media outlets... pictures to local "Zine" type alternative news papers in metro cities... Are there any just out of college democratic journalists that are just following this stuff around like a Dead season and sending their articles off to everyone?

Where is the center of this movement? Is it Cathy Sheehan, United for Peace and Justice? Students? Who are the indians? Who are the cheifs?


When is this party going to start in earnest.. What is your part? What other questions should we all be answering for ourselves? What can we do? Is there a movement?

Name the 10 most well known names involved in it.

1. Welcome to DU. And now may I slap you down in a gentle way.

This party of protest has been in earnest for 3 years running now.

I'm rather insulted on behalf of all of us that have been fighting this fight in Texas.

Who are you and instead of such a post maybe you should do some homework and then ask some questions.

I'm speechless, rather aghast and questioning my welcome to you.

Oh and by the way, on edit.

It is Cindy not Cathy. and cheifs is chiefs. Good luck. Who are the Indians is indeed a good question.

It appears you have lots left yet to learn in "marketing" 101. Oh and by the way sales. (It's part of marketing).

[anarchy1999]

2. On top of it all I'll never in a heartbeat give you so new the names of

the "10" most involved. Get a life.

3. Wondering if the OP can name at least 10 of the people who have died in

Iraq?

[anarchy1999]

4. "OP"? Who are they?

Can't wait to hear.

[KitchenWitch]

5. Apparently the dead in Iraq have no marketing!

[BeTheChange]

7. Yes..

but what exactly is the point? To try to be impertainent?

6. Are you people serious?

Get a life because I asked who the 10 biggest names involved in the movement to get this administration out of office were? See, the thing is that nobody seems to know those names. I want to know who the speakers and leaders of my time are. Its interesting that you would refuse to educate people on that because somehow you took my post completely personally and got your nose out of joint.

Are you kidding me?

I need to learn marketing 101, because I asked questions? You jump on my spelling of cheif and that at almost 4 am I accidently said Cathy instead of Cindy?

They were valid questions, the lot of them. Im 136 miles away and not one flyer did I see in Deep Ellum, not one mention in the Observer, or any other street zine.. I didnt hear anything about it on several different radio stations as I drove around all day. I sure didnt hear about it on the local community radio, which is super cool.. and its surprising that I didnt hear about it.. they must not have known about it either. Im sure you guys have done alot, but sometimes there arent enough people to do everything that needs to be done. Im not going to donate money to an organization that is rag tag, Im not going to offer time.. Right now, Im looking for the most realistic option. Im done playing dress up, puppetmaker and drummer... I wanted to know if this was more then a couple of people brainstorming in a basement somewhere, excuse me.

You seem to have alot of hubris, watch out, ego screws people up.


The problem seems to be that when you try to find out who's who, there seem to be a lot of people who act and think like cheifs pissing off the few people who seem to want to be indians.
