Impeach George Bush
Blog for America , 8:12:34 PM.
On Monday night, September 29, Candidate Howard Dean's going for another history-making-moment -- he's trying to establish the world record for the largest conference call in world history. Howard Dean will get on the phone with thousands of supporters in every state, raising small dollars in small clusters in dorm rooms and kitchens, sharing pizza or rice and beans or a three-course meal.

Join the moment and set up your own line on the House Call. All you need to do to register is call (802) 651 3200 ext. 174, or contact housecall@deanforamerica.com, or visit www.deanforamerica.com/housecall.
I've sat in on smaller calls, and there's something inexplicably powerful about having the phone to your ear, or on the table, and knowing that at that very moment hundreds (in this case thousands) of others are holding their own phones or staring at the speaker phone in their own small cluster of friends.
It's 8pm Eastern Time, 5pm Pacific on Monday -- the sooner you set yours up the better (we send you DFA DVD to show, and this really cool DFA America Baseball Bat pen if you sign up by September 25).
Somewhere the money in politics got so big that most people felt they couldn't play a role, but the last months you've shown that a surge of money doesn't have to be corrupt, or represent the purchase of time, or the expression of selfish interest. You are proving every day that donating to a political campaign is both an expression of passion and makes a real difference. This House Call fuses new and old politics, bringing together the tradition of house parties with the new tradition of low-dollar donors speaking out and taking ownership of politics. We recommend aiming to raise $200 for your House Call, but you set your own fundraising goal. Aim for whatever you believe you can raise. It really doesn't have to be fancy -- just find a phone and a few friends to join you.
This national House Call is another of those moments in history -- a tangible expression of this revolutionary national conversation that will stick in your memory for a long, long time.
And if you had any doubt, check out this great telephone flash made by Christopher Dye (you've seen him on the blog) and pass it on:
House Call Flash
Every person reading this blog can either hold a House Call or encourage a friend to hold one -- and every new line on the call contributes to the profundity of the moment that you all get on the phone. Thanks.
