Subject: Kucinich on Lessig Blog Next Week


**** VOLUNTEER ACTION ANNOUNCEMENT ****

I am pleased to announce that Dennis has been invited
to guest-blog on Lawrence Lessig's site next week!
Lawrence Lessig is a noted author and professor of law
at Stanford -- his blog is one of the most thoughtful
provoking sites for legal and technology policy
discussions on the Internet. Dennis is particularly
excited to contribute to this grassroots forum, and
has a special interest in many of the issues covered
on Lessig's blog, including those dealing with
privacy, law, technology, and the rights of consumers.



The Details:
Date: Monday 8/11 until Friday 8/15
Location: http://lessig.org/blog/

We need your help to make this event a success. Here
is what you can do:

1)Join the dialogue at Lessig's blog next week!
Help us generate relevant discussion around Dennis'
blog entries by posting thoughtful comments on his
postings. If you are new to some of the technology
issues (Patriot Act, copyright reform, media
consolidation, RIAA vs consumers, electronic voting,
and spam) this will be a great place to watch serious
debate on the issues and get up to speed.

2)Spread the word!
If you have a web site or blog, announce this event
and place a link to Lessig's blog on your site! Let's
bring interested people to the dialogue! Let us know
of any relevant sites or blogs by providing us with
the URL and subject matter in our web form at:
http://www.kucinich.us/contact.htm
Please start your comment with the word "blog:".

It is also important to let your friends know about
the event. Tell them it's coming up, and point them
to particularly interesting postings as the discussion
unfolds.

3)Help us with your expertise!
Are you a copyright or software patent expert? Do you
work with an activist group that deals with privacy
rights, media concentration, P2P, or the Patriot Act?
Send us an email at [email protected] with
"expert" as the subject and let us know what you do.

I am very excited that we have this opportunity to
introduce Dennis to one of the most visible and
powerful online communities for discussing law and the
role of technology in shaping our democracy. Mark your
calendars for next Monday through Friday.

Yours truly,


Claudia Slate,
Virtual Outreach Coordinator

1. Lessig is more

Hmmm. Kucinich guest blogging for Lessig; Dean receiving the Time Magazine coverboy treatment.

There's being a gadfly, and then there's being a gadfly. ;-)

Go, Dennis!
