Now's the Time to Call for Change

We're calling the next president and congress to enact a program of mandatory national service. Though President Bush missed his chance to ask for a common sacrifice from all Americans, we believe this election offers another opportunity for national leaders to call everyone to serve. Now we need to show them that there's support for universal service from across the political spectrum. On what other topics can you find Melvin Laird, John Edwards, David Brooks, and Joe Klein in agreement?

Join our fight and sign the Everyone Serves petition.

Web World Forum on How Online Issue Campaigns Can Leverage the Presidential Elections

Alan Rosenblatt — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 11:52:35 -0400

This morning I attended the Adfero Group's Winning in a Web World forum at the US Chamber of Commerce. The topic of this forum was "How Associations Engage Online in a Presidential Election." The half-day forum started out with a panel on User Generated Campaigns, featuring among others one of our newest TechPresident colleagues, Patrick Ruffini. Patrick was joined by David Almacy, who used to serve as the Internet and eCommunications Director for the White House and is now a digital media strategy consultant. The second panel featured e-advocacy strategists from AARP, Children's Defense Fund, and Strong Schools for America to talk about how they were leveraging the campaigns to raise awareness of their issues.
