The latest ad from the Denver Group is appearing today ( July 17th) in the Congressional Quarterly Daily targeting Hill Democrats and other major DC players. This is your message to them as much as it is ours. (Click image to see larger view.)
What a missile!! Your hard hitting presentation gives our message simply and clearly. Beautiful photo of FDR. Good strategy to aim the ad at the Hill Dems where it can be maximally effective.
You have choosen an effective way to get the message across to others~ it is the reason I am donating to you~ although I am unemployed, I am making a small donation towards your efforts in supporting Sen. Clinton for the nomination roll call in Denver! I wish I could have given you more~ but I am unable~ I am the American that Hillary fights for each day. Unemployed, no health Ins., barely making ends meet. Thank you for being there to help us fight for whats fair and right! WE need Hillary~ now.. be blessed and be safe~ FRD
I just saw the youtube video of FDR's convention battle. It gives me some hope that people will wake up and realize that there is no reason to fear the democratic process. Well done!
Wow, I love it, it's plainness in b/w speeks volumes and the text leads away from (personal) candidates to a simple, democratic understanding and asks just for that. It takes us to a different, better level all together. Marc and Heidi, thank you for this.
This is great. You folks from the Denver Group are really something else. I am so grateful for everything you folks are doing. Keep up the wonderful work.
As an observer to the present situation in the Presidential race, the Democratic National Committee would be wise to pay attention to this excellent add. Its wide circulation should make the Super Delegates think again...... If it is ignored, I would think that many voters will not be there to support the party and will use the various options open to them in November......
This is really a FANTASTIC ad. Good Job, I'm so proud of you!!! I would donate $$$, but I'm cash-poor right now because I sent $100 to Hillary's debt paydown this month....
As the youngest child of an FDR Democrat, I can only say that I wish my mother were alive to witness what The Denver Group is doing. She would be so proud.
I will keep donating what I can each week so that you can keep the ads coming and keep the pressure on. Thank you for representing us so magnificently!
what a truly awesome ad!! thank you Denver Group, I have been thinking for months how this is like FDR and how Hillary IS our FDR and how we need her now more than ever.
Absolutely perfect and so inspiring!!
thank you so much for your work!!!
as soon as I hit payday again I will make another contribution ..
I read recently that Pelosi has a 4% approval rating. I don't know if that is true, but this ad should put some more of the spotlight on her and the DNC.
My 93 year old father - who voted for Roosevelt, by the way, is looking at voting for a republican POTUS for the first time in his life. We are all extremely upset about Hillary has been treated by the DNC.
It is a strong message and should make some uncomfortable. And, It's about time!!
This is fantastic!!Yeah this and the youtube video..just right to the point. Today, Puma sent as a "prowl" all the S.D. email addresses...can we send this ad to them?
Well I didn't get posted...i just want to know what you think if we send this ad to all the S.D. by way of email, since we have their addresses? Marc, as I said earlier, I love this simple straight forward black and white ad.It says it all, and many people hopefully will not be fearful for standing up !!
For months, I have supported Hillary Clinton, but I have told friends that I would vote for Barack Obama if he won the nomination fair and square - he did not. The convention is the DNC's last best hope of legitimizing what many of us have deemed a sham primary. They would be fools not to take your advise. Your ad is right on target. Thank you.
Hedi Li and Marc, perfect ad, great copy! Pointed and concise with the added neat touch of 'fear itself' reference. Congrats on a great a job, and here is hoping that the good people on the Hill pay attention, and act wisely.
This ad is so awesome! You guys hit the mark every time. You state your case. You don't mince words. You don't sound hysterical or enraged. You're strong, dignified and right on.
Sending another (small, sorry...) contribution today!
fab! a quantum quality jump...a bull's eye target hit...high road of political insight/ad placement...great stuff...thanx for lifting us up and out of the campaign underbelly...which is sooo easy to wallow in.

OUR POST CONVENTION GOALS
The goals of the Denver Group in the coming general election are simple and straightforward. After witnessing the most corrupt nominating process we have ever seen, something reminiscent of the bad old days of Boss Tweed, when a rigged nominating process and roll call vote were substituted for the voices and votes of 18 million Democratic primary voters, and in the process every rule, procedure and democratic principle violated, we think what is most important now is that principle prevails before party. That means restoring the values of the Democratic Party and the principles for which it has stood and returning it to those who respect and value those traditions.
To that end our goals are:
1. The withholding of support for the Democratic candidate for President on the grounds that the party leadership subverted Democratic Party rules, procedures and principles in order to select a predetermined candidate without regard to the Democratic Party's voters, principles, rules or procedures. We do not believe anything justifies supporting a candidate who is there because of a corruption of democratic principles in the name of winning.
2. If the Democrats lose, holding accountable Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi and others in the DNC who are responsible for subverting the principles which alienated 18 million voters, leading to the defeat, by demanding their resignations. And getting them.
3. The return of the Democratic Party into the hands of those who will respect its traditions, its values and democratic procedures so that the Democratic Party can be returned to those values and principles for which it has always stood.

WHO WE ARE AND OUR GOALS AND PURPOSES
The Denver Group has been formed to insure that the Democratic National Committee respect and carry out the democratic process at the convention in Denver this August by meeting certain specific goals.

Our goals are:
An open convention.
Senator Clinton's name placed in nomination. No symbolic roll call vote.
Speeches allowed by supporters of Senator Clinton on behalf of her candidacy.
A genuine roll call vote with Senator Clinton as a legitimate candidate.
No coronation

DENVER GROUP RADIO INTERVIEW AT NO QUARTER
Here is a link to listen to the Denver Group radio interview conducted 7/2/08 byNo Quarter Radio.
DENVER GROUP VIDEO
click the picture to see the inspirational video.
Read "Negotiating Democracy" on No Quarter
Click the link and read "Negotiating Democracy" and how Obama, Donna Brazile and the DNC are trying to keep Senator Clinton's name out of nomination. Then when you're even angrier than you are now come back and donate to The Denver Group
1. Senator Clinton has only suspended her campaign.She has not conceded and never offered a statement of concession which is traditional when someone is no longer a candidate. She did not officially end her candidacy which she could have chosen to do. She is still technically a candidate.
2. Senator Clinton has not released her delegates.Releasing or asking her delegates to support Senator Obama is also something she could have done. She has not. All of Senator Clinton's delegates won during the primary season are still committed to her and can cast their votes for her at the convention as long as her name is on the ballot.
3. Super delegates public declarations do not count.They can change their minds ( as some did during the primary). They are not committed to any of their public declarations. Nothing counts until they cast their votes in Denver on August 27th.

Senex, Ireland
How dare they try to subvert the process! It makes me so angry. If they are so sure of Obama, let the delegates vote.
Great ad! It's really motivating!
WOW you are amazing to create an ad like this. It says exactly what needs to be said.
Absolutely OUTSTANDING! Kudos to the Denver Group for the great work you're doing. You hit the target.
