THREE CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES LAUNCH NATIONWIDE OUTREACH WEBSITE

On July 4, 1776, fifty-six brave Americans signed the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia declaring their independence from the chains of servitude to the King. In keeping with this "Spirit of '76" three congressional candidates, from two different states and from both major parties, have declared their independence from the chains of special interest money, political action committees, big private donors and lobbyists.

Vying for the opportunity to serve in the 111th Congress, the three candidates have launched a new nationwide website (www.Spirit1776.com) that will revolutionize politics and help grassroots candidates reach out to American voters and raise funds directly from the people.

The three candidates, two republicans and one democrat, are sending a clear message to Washington that candidates serious about making changes and wanting to restore the people's trust in the government need to put the people in their district first by refusing to take money from any special interest groups, political
action committees, big private donors and lobbyists.

Spirit1776.com is a nonpartisan website and its current members are actively seeking other congressional candidates from around the country, from any party, who will also agree not to accept contributions from influential special interest and PAC groups, as well as from power donors.

To be listed on this new national website, congressional candidates must agree to limit the amount of money they will accept from individuals to $76 (in the Spirit of '76). They must also agree to limit the solicitation of contributions to within the geographical boundaries of their respective congressional districts and to the internet.

The three candidates, Morris Guller (D) from NY-20CD, Paul Swiderski (R) from PA-10CD, and John Wallace (R) from NY-20CD, believe that the American people are tired of the influence big money has on federal elected officials and have set out to prove that federal elections can be won based solely on the support of individual American citizens, as was intended by our forefathers.

If only we had gotten Edwards/Clark last time instead of Kerry/Edwards we would have had it in the bag. Please Please PLEASE.... Look at John Edwards for what he has done with his life and what he wants to help the disadvantaged and middle class (which are practically the same thing these days) for themselves. He is the real deal.

Don't make another mistake...Stupid voters concentrating on stupid things gave us stupid Bush...WAKE UP!!!

Very few people are naive enough to think that special interest donations can be "pledged" away. And even fewer are unsophisticated enough that they can't tell the difference between taking money from labor unions and taking it from business groups.

Edwards needs to quit the political baby-talk and give people a reason to vote FOR him. There are plenty of ways to vote AGAINST Hillary, if that's all a person wants to do.

Until we reform our political system and get all of the special interest money out and publically finance our campaigns little will change!

Maybe we'll end up with an Obama/Edwards ticket. That would rock.

I'd like to sign the pledge as a denouncement of Hillary Clinton's Washington establishment politics. We need REAL change. Lobbyists will not bring that change.

GO JOHN GO!!!

It is time for true Democrats to step up to the challenge to save America from the greed and corruption that divides our country.
