REAL CHANGE

"We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." What a paragraph! This sparse, 52-word opening of our Constitution did not merely launch a fledgling nation--but a bold experiment in democratic idealism.

Granny d marches on!
We told you last month about Doris Haddock, the 89-year-old great-grandmother who is walking—walking!—across all 3,000 miles of America to rally public support for campaign finance reform.
It's a major story that the establishment media is ignoring (they've been notified), but the people are getting it via word of mouth, the Internet and, of course, the Hightower Chat & Chew radio talk show (on-line at www.jimhightower.com— noon to 2 pm EST).
Granny had a grand time in Phoenix when she and a crowd of supporters gathered outside the office of Republican U.S. Senator Jon Kyl—a notorious anti-reformer. For weeks ahead of time she had requested an audience with him, and he was in his office but wouldn't come out. A powerhouse Senator hiding under his desk! As she put it: "I think he's afraid of Granny."
Keep up with this remarkable lady's democratic crusade: www.grannyd.com.
