Last Saturday I gave your platform to a couple who were customers at the diner. They were reading it voraciously and said it was great. We talked a little bit about how politicians always come up with why the things you talk about can't be done. Your platform opens that up and gives people the idea that these things are possible, then people start talking about how they can be done.

A Question

somebody asked: "would Frank require people to prove they had voted on the paid holiday election day in order to get the paid holiday? Was he looking for the slacker vote or the vote of responsible people?" He thought that if you just make election day a paid holiday, it wasn't going to get anyone more to vote, it would just give the slackers a day off.

mmmm....i thought the election holiday was a no-brainer, removing needless roadblocks to people exercising their right to vote. i realize historically [to the present] politicians have always placed all kinds of hindrances to keep the WRONG people...blacks, women, workers, people of different parties, etc... from voting. but i ain't playing those games.

but people also have the right to NOT vote. not voting can be a form of political expression. hey....if i wasn't running, i probably wouldn't be voting. so it would be wrong to force people to vote...to vote for "the lesser evil."

but imagine seeing people as "slackers." imagine that version of reality. in that version, nothing much could be done. i never have operated in that version! in reality, most people aren't slackers. in reality we in this country have much less "off-time" than europeans. so even if the election holiday "just" gave people an extra day off, it will be a good thing!

Obama Event

From Erika Shaver-Nelson:

It was fun to wear the campaign outfit and everyone just loved it, loved the hat, really like the hat. I handed out brochures throughout the morning and then at the Obama event so it felt like just being there all dressed up the campaign outfit was fun and powerful. I stayed for most of the event and they served cupcakes and ice cream and a woman brought her guitar and played music and the dvd didn't work so one of the guys mostly talked about Obama and some of the issues but they really didn't give that much information. The woman who has been emailing was pretty high strung and hard, and ironically probably a Lesbian ( a minority herself). I asked her at the end what she liked about Frank's platform and she said oh, all of it it's great! But then went off on how there are places for people with disabilities in political positions and basically being president ain't one of them and then went off on something else. It just didn't feel like there was much of an opening to really talk to her and for her to budge so I didn't say much more. Should I respond to her email this morning? At one point Sidney went up to her and handed her a platform and said Frank's a local candidate who would give election day off to everyone and she took the platform and it seemed like she would read it, but it felt really good to be handing out the platforms which are so clear and us of course cutting through all the heavy crap of politics such as Obama's campaign event and to be sitting there all decked up in a Frank Moore for President campaign costume at an Obama event! Jerome took a platform and Lucy a stack to take to her co-workers at Long's who heard about it from when she was at part of Frank's speech. She thought Frank was going to be there today so I said maybe he could come back sometime.

people are amazing pt. 3

it keeps going! here's the woman's reply:

"erika- from my perspective/experience:

i've been a disability activist for years- to think that anyone w/ that level of communication is as capable to lead a country as an able-bodied individual goes beyond "politically correct" -to -absurd to me.

it has nothing to do with a person who is a bigot or narrow minded or "pre-judging" of someone w/ that type of disability. it has to do w/ simple logic. his wife goes out of her way to interpret for him. the fact that i like his ideas/platform has nothing to do w/ him having the capabilities to be placed into the kind of position he's running for. to be in an advisory position is something i absolutely would agree with, but only if his wife were taken out of the picture. she's a political nightmare in my view.

i've forwarded the link to a friend of mine w/ similar disability issues. can't wait to get his response later today.

meanwhile- see you at the presentation in a few...."

this is a case of WITH "FRIENDS" LIKE THIS, YOU ARE FUCKED! she is the kind of "liberal" common in civil rights movements. they glom onto a suppressed group....to help these helpless child-like people...to advocate for these misfortunates...because obviously they can't advocate for themselves....obviously they need our guidance, etc. these candy-coated bigots are invested in keeping the people helpless even more than the raging bigots. they get very nasty when they are told their "help" is not required.

it's interesting that she is also a sexist. i am assuming she is labeling linda as my wife! she ain't...nor erika...and mikee, alexi, corey aren't my husbands. we don't believe in MARRIAGE. but linda has been my lover for around 35 years....and more importantly linda and i have been working together for those years. if you think i'd let dimwits cripple me by denying that working relationship, don't vote for me. and if you think i'm a puppet of anybody, don't vote for me!

but i have been running for a year...and this is the first bigoted reaction. most people see! of course as it becomes clear during the campaign i ain't just a cute guy, we'll get more and more of this shit! and just wait until we are in the white house making real changes...shitstorm!

people are amazing pt. 2

if you thought that women said HE IS RADICAL...or HE HAS NO POLTIICAL EXPERIENCE NOR MONEY...or HE IS A NUDE EROTIC "PERFORMANCE ARTIST" WHO LIVES IN A COMMUNE...etc...you are wrong. she said "are you serious, HE'S GOT CEREBRAL PALSY!"

erika replied, "that's like saying ARE YOU SERIOUS? OBAMA IS BLACK...AND HILARY IS A WOMAN!

to which the woman replied: "are you comparing someone who has severe issues communicating verbally with someone who's skin color is a potential challenge in a political race for office?"

erika: "YES. BOTH ARE PREJUDICE."

poor obama, he needs better, more savy people representing him!

to set this up...the retirement community where erika [who we live with] offers free meeting/performing rooms to community groups, speakers, etc. to bring the community TO the residents. it's a part of erika's job as the director of enrichment to set these events up.

so a woman from obama called to set up an obama event. at some point she asked erika if the other candidates had had events there. erika said "the independent candidate frank moore spoke"...and erika gave her my web site.

so today, erika said: "the woman who is setting up the Obama thing tomorrow wrote back and said that she has started checking out Frank's site and she said are you really taking this guy seriously. This guy's...."

Subject: Re: NEED A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT?

I had an investor meeting with a friend who was running under the Democratic party for president and recently dropped out. His main focus was on ending the war and he went to Iraq a few times, meeting with some of the most influential leaders of the different Iraqi coalitions/tribes and with General Petraeus. It didn't go the way of his high hopes, but did allow him to discover he really didn't want to be President.

He didn't feel he had enough support from his community/family. And I thought that was because his vision wasn't inspiring and/or broad enough. I showed him yours which he really appreciated and thought was smart ... but impossible. I said you mean improbable ... but the point was it was the only vision that anyone has put out, that everyone could understand ... that has the possibility of working! He didn't want to talk politics anymore... Was tired of hearing people say impossible to him and now he had found himself saying it.

You planted the seed of groups to speak to, we'll see what sprouts.

devi, this gives me much juicy fuel that one needs to keep blasting full force in a long-term way. i'm lucky. i get quite a few of these charges almost everyday...like how the 80-year old black woman in front of a store today just lit up when she started reading the platform. people get it. it gives them hope. they know it's possible!

it's amazing that we are getting to such a guy on that level...getting the ideas in the platform to infect him, effecting him, opening new possibilities within him. getting the platform to people. that is the core of this campaign. that exposes the artificial limits that everybody [in the power game] just accepts. you and i do "the impossible" everyday...it's our bread and butter. of course the vision of society outlined in the platform is IMPOSSIBLE politically because almost everyone in politics is invested in, infected by the old ways, by the addictions of power and obscenely huge profits...the political world which depends on things NOT working. i'm a realist. i know it will be IMPOSSIBLE in that political world. but outside that political world, our vision is very practical, very doable, etc....which people get from the platform.

From Da Boyz:

" Corey told them about Cafe Leila, and about the city letter ... they were shocked. Rick was waiting for the punchline, being that Frank was going to do something about it, and when it came that Frank had sent out an email to a bunch of people, including city officials, Rick said something like, "I knew that part was coming!"

"Then we headed off to poster downtown Berkeley, plastering the area, waiting for the first opportunity to get a good mocha ... As we were putting up fliers outside of Mel's, a girl came up to us asking for a flier. She said she had been watching Frank's shows on BTV, and wanted to get a better sense of what it was all about. She just moved to the area and had seen several of his shows. We asked her what she had seen, and she said, "Well, some of them are pretty 'scandalous'!" She said she was still trying to figure out what was going on! We told her that Frank is running for President too ... "Really?!" ... and gave her a platform, and she ran back into Mel's, rejoining a group of friends and showing them the flier and the platform ..."

Perspectives on the Parade

Subject: Perspectives on the Parade

Frank,

I finally have a few minutes to sit down and reflect on the whole How Berkeley Can You Be Parade experience. Just looking at the pictures again makes me smile. Thanks again for inviting me to join you all for the day.

When I arrived at your house, Erika was already at work on decorating the cars, Corey and Alexi working on the booth. Pretty energetic for an early morning. Carl came over and helped as we covered the van and car with stars, campaign posters and peace flags. On the drive across town to the parade staging area, the van was a vision of twirling stars and one or two of the knots failed, but the super-strength magnets holding the posters on never budged.

The final prep work took place in the street with all the other parade participants. We tied balloons to both vehicles and to Frank's chair, as the group of mediators in front practiced their skit, and costumed skaters warmed up on the street. Once the parade started moving, it was hard to tell who was having more fun, the participants or the crowds. The streets were lined by a classic Berkeley crowd, many in their finest tie-dye. I was driving the lead van, with the boom-box on the roof looping campaign slogans. It was fun to see the reactions. Some people were asking "who is Frank Moore?" while others cheered and knew Frank, Linda, Mikee and Erika from BTV. The parade moved slowly enough for Frank to press the flesh with an adoring crowd. I kept watch in the mirrors so our little caravan stayed together until we reached the Park and the next phase of the day.

We parked with the Art Cars and moved the balloons and signs to the booth. The music and the food booths and the crowds were great. The collection of Art Cars was mind boggling. After a while wandering and eating I had to get back to work. But I left smiling, reminded again why I love living and working here, surrounded by incredible people.

Hi Frank,

I've decided to support you in your bid to win the Presidency. Your platform is well thought out and would make a real difference.

My only suggestion is lowering your 75% flat tax on those earning over 5 million dollars per annum. Perhaps, 25% would be better.

I find you and your site inspiring.

it is an interesting suggestion. i'm open to it. what would be the reason to do it that way? in my plan the 75% rate for an individual kicks in at a million dollars a year and for a corporation 5 million dollars. i'd be incline to keep the individual rate there. but the corporate rate could be 25% for 6 milion-10 million, 50% for 11-20 million, and 75% for 20+ million.
