Welcome DailyKos
Visitors & Friends...
Draftfreedom.org is a grassroots campaign. Over 400 hours have been
donated by a small team of committed marketing and communication
professionals.
We prefer to keep
draftfreedom.org this way: Focused on the
message
that
war
involves
moral choices
and that all Americans have the right of moral refusal from
participation in an illegal war. Soldiers who are
asked to carry out the agenda of the neoconservative Republicans
are the victims of this war. No American should be forced
to fight for an illegal war.
Draftfreedom.org
is about more than opposing the draft:
- It's about changing
the conversation from one of logistical failure to
one of moral failure.
- The logistical failures
of this war make the moral failures more tragic.
- Americans
are a moral people. The
way to gain support for deescalating of this
war, and a return to normalcy in our international agenda,
is by talking
to Americans
about the moral and human costs of wars of
aggression.
Draftfreedom.org
projects include:
The only
way that we will get our message out to tens of thousands
of Americans is through your support.
Download
and email one (or several) of the photos below.
Send
it to 100 of your friends, and ask them to do likewise.
These
photos not only tell the story of the war, but do so
in a moral framework.
Please
also consider linking DailyDraftDispatch.org to
your blog or web page.

If only 2% of those
expected to read this message on respond
by sending the email to 100 friends, and if only 2% of
those who get the
email continue the chain by forwarding the photos to another
100 friends, in five steps we will have reached 75,000 people.
(Don't have 100 people to send to? Send to as many as you do.
So long as 2% forward your message on, we'll still reach our
goal of 75,000.)
This is the only
way we can get the message out without a lot of money for advertising.
When we do start fundraising, we'd rather the money go towards
legal aid, counseling, direct action against poverty recruitment
and leadership development projects.
In just over a month,
we've already reached thousands of people, thanks to Daily Kos.
We'd like to turn that into hundreds of thousands.
When you send the
photo, be sure to include a personal statement for what the
photo means to you. And be sure to make a direct request that
the email be forwarded to 100 more people. This is how we'll
work around the SCLM and the neoconservative Republicans who
want to hide the true costs of war from the American people.
