Maybe change IS coming, just not from who or where we thought. Go down memory lane just a little bit...

Back in 2004, one of the key instigators for the massive grass movement political organizations was Howard Dean. He literally changed the world. He can do it again. He is every bit as powerful as Ben Franklin or Thomas Jefferson, and should be supported at all costs.

It is time to support the truth about corporatism and support democracy with Howard Dean as our leader, even in a shadow government, if need be!

I'm not saying to bash Obama, I'm saying to follow the truth!

5. But the power behind the election that year was enormous.
Then Dean was behind the 50-state strategy last year and we won.

2. Obama borrowed the online model and populist message from Dean...
Wouldn't it be interesting if the next piece of this "You have the power"/"Yes we can" journey brings Dean back front and center.

6. If Dean announced he was running for President in 2012, we'd have real HCR in 6 months
Dr. Dean is a leader that the Democratic base can fall behind enthusiastically. If he challenges Obama for the nomination, Obama will start leaning OUR way immediately.
