Robert

Thanks for joining the ROUND-UP.
Please add a comment about this early education concept at the site. It's an idea in formation and everyone's input is sought and welcome.

Now that you've taken the plunge remember it's all about the volume of our voice in DC which is in direct proportion to our numbers. Spread the PICKENS PLAN word to as many in your network of friends, family and colleagues as possible. Join your local CONGESSIONAL DSTRICT GROUP and volunteer to lead or co-lead. Our experience in NJ is that having a partner in the process makes it easier, more affective and if you’re lucky enough as we have been to find the right person, way more fun!

We’re very happy to have you with us. With you along, and 1.4 million others, maybe we’ll actually get this thing done. Keep you horse watered and your powder dry, it's going to be a long dusty ride.

Regards,
Jack Costantino

So glad you found the Pickens Plan. Welcome.

We must get to 2 million supporters, and many more, if we are to have the influence and support that Harry Reid and gang will need to hang their political hat on when they put transmission, smart grid and renewables "on the table". When will we ever have an opportunity like this... or a man like Boone to push this rope, again?

EVERYONE wants to get off of foreign oil and EVERYONE understands that we need to keep the money in this country. WE just need to gather their names. IT really is quite easy - Boone has done the hard work.

Keep it simple. I say... " I am gathering support for T. Boone Picken's Plan to get us off of foreign oil. Can I add you to the 1.4 million supporters already on the list. We sipmpy must keep those billions in THIS country."

The key points are:

1. We can not just "spread the word" - people are busy, and although they mean well, most will not take the time to go to the site and join us. We need to control the process by taking name, address and email. It takes just a few seconds to input manually.

2. Everyone that I signed up gets Boone's emails. Some have become more involved, ALL have become more informed. One person at a time we change the paradigm of thought on energy in this country.


3. We are lucky, unlike our forefathers, we do not need to take up arms to change the course of history. We need to go out of our comfort zone a bit and ask. Are we willing to do that?... or not?

4. When will we ever have a chance like this again? We must put our heads down and plow like hell. Our numbers will be critical to get Harry Reid his "60 votes" he will be looking for (Energy Summit) when he puts transmission, smart grid and renewables on the table. WHEN WILL WE EVER HAVE A MAN LIKE BOONE AT THE HELM, willing to spare no time and expense to change the course of this nation?

PLEASE, ask your friends and family to support this plan. Simply add their information manually at our TAKE ACTION page, it takes just a few seconds. Here is the link:

WE CAN DO THIS.

Grateful for your help. Please stop by and let me know how it goes. Try it today. When you get to 100 we would be honored to have you int he 100CLUB!

Best,
Kim
