  1. The fact that the newsletter highlights a victory in a local school board election shows the importance of being informed and active locally. The infiltration into the system is happening at all levels of government.

  2. I forgot ot say that the only reason she won, and only by a few thousand votes, is because Bruce Springstein showed up at Ohio State, to support obama, and the kids to vote for him. The students just went down the line Dem. This was the only reason she won…

    I don't think she'll win in Nov – and by all accounts she's meaner than Nancy Pelosi and that's saying something.

    Best regards,

  3. She actively ran the extremist Free Press newpaper and participated in a French socialist documentary where she was very sympathic to the "struggle" of the American radical lefties.

    The documentary, "Sentimental Journey: America's Dissidents", by Noel Burch, "tells of Burch's return to America and of meeting up with former leftist companions."

    Thank you so much for all you do to expose these cancerous creeps…
