Campaign and give away towards victory

Monday, January 25th, 2010

When you want to get a smashing political campaign going, there are so many things to organize. The slogan needs to get worked out and people should love it, activists must be gathered and of course the budget has to be looked after. Let’s talk today about using giveaways, advertising specialties in political campaigns as a way to connect with the electorate and get the yes-votes into ballot boxes.

For people who love the candidate a giveaway is a token of respect and a wonderful symbol to keep. Paired down with powerful messages, such products as pens, caps and badges can represent very important ideas. The trick is to make both the giveaways or gifts canada and the way the are distributed seem to be about the message, not about the candidate. Make people feel the emotions of being together and fighting for a good cause, a sense of union and strong community. Such items can tell a lot about the person who wears them, about his strong views and his desire to act. But beautiful promotional gifts won’t get anyone into office if the candidate lacks charisma and a good agenda. So try to reflect the best features of the candidate in giveaway products – reliability, commitment to people and loyalty to the party. Get the best experts and start building your platform.

Omar Lopez Statement.

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

As his supporter, I can’t but put Omar Lopez’s speech here.

Today we are announcing that I am seeking the Green Party of Illinois’ nomination for the position of Congressman for the Illinois 4th congressional district. Should the Party nominate me, my name will be on the ballot for the November 2008 general election.

Today, voters in the 4th congressional district need and deserve proper representation. My decision to seek the nomination responds to the need to bring a new direction, a new vision and new leadership to the already stale and ineffective position which the incumbent holds.

I have chosen the Green Party because it is the Party that today reflects the democratic principles embodied in the Constitution of the United States of America.  The Green Party is the only viable alternative to the moral bankruptcy and lack of political will of the two parties in congress, and because the Green Party champions workers’ rights,  just and comprehensive immigration reform, quality and accessible education for all  and a comprehensive healthcare system.

As a congressman I will fight to place the immigration debate within the context of pro-worker labor law reform, rather than to continue the current, myopic focus on  national security and law enforcement. For as long as we define immigrant workers as criminals and ignore that  their labor creates much of our national wealth, our conclusions will always produce a higher border wall with an ever growing military presence. As long as legislators ignore the intimate relationship between undocumented migration and workers’ abuse, they will not be able to see the need to advocate for living wages and to legislate proper labor law reform. Until our politicians recognize the link between globalization, the so called “free” trade agreements, and the deepening economic crisis, both at home and abroad, the conditions which forces millions to migrate will never be resolved.

The United States faces a global challenge; our involvement in the Iraq war and the Middle East crisis has forced our own citizens to question our government’s foreign policy; the value of the dollar is in decline world-wide. Several Latin American nations have democratically elected progressive presidents who are forcing a re-arrangement of regional economic power.  In the face of these challenges we cannot afford to neglect the education of our children and their training in the new realities of world politics. Quality education must be available to all; it is a safeguard to our own democratic way of life.

A nation whose view is distorted by disease and clouded by denial cannot take care of itself. Our nation needs to retake the road to recovery and health.  Our citizens must have access to quality healthcare in order for them to be able to contribute with their labor to the aggrandizement of our Nation; every single one of them must be healthy enough to be able to learn, and all need to feel free from discrimination and persecution because of their national origin or economic status.

Today, as I announce my intention to run for congress, I’m appealing to every able body to join me in our campaign. I want your help in bringing a new direction, a new vision and new leadership to the 4th congressional district. We need it, we deserve it!
