PUMA in WA will unite together!

PUMA stands for "People United Means Action!" You may know that there is another, more defiant meaning for the acronym P.U.M.A. There will be no unity in the Democratic party until the voices of the 18 million voters who support Hillary Clinton are heard and heeded.

We are motivated to action by our shared belief that the current leadership of the Democratic National Committee has abrogated its responsibility to represent the interests of all democrats in all 50 states. They are misleading our party and aim to mislead our country into nominating an illegitimate candidate for president in 2008. Our goals are fourfold:


1. To support the candidacy of Hillary Clinton in 2008 / 2012.

2. To lobby and organize for changes in leadership in the DNC

3. To critique and oppose the misogyny, discrimination, and disinformation in the mainstream media, including mainstream blogs and other outlets of new media

4. To support the efforts of those political figures who have allied themselves with Hillary Clinton and who have demonstrated commitment to our first three goals

DAILY Rasmussen Poll:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Barack Obama attracting 49% of the vote while John McCain earns 46%.

#2 - Send a paper crown to the DNC

This one is fun! Make a paper crown or get one at BK or a party store and send it to the DNC.

On the crown write:
OBAMA - SELECTED, NOT ELECTED or
We want a convention, not a coronation!

Add your name and state on the back, along with the words PUMA DEMOCRAT or just PUMA!

As dissenting Dems, we should refuse to pay for Obama's coronation...but we are generous...we will be happy to supply him an appropriate prop for his next photo op!

DNC Chairman Howard Dean
