Petrelis Files

Dear Friends:

As you probably know by now, the Green Party on Saturday chose David Cobb to be its presidential candidate this year.

While I am certainly disappointed the Greens didn't endorse Ralph Nader and Peter Camejo, I will waste no time bemoaning this development, and still support the party and its slate of candidates. There is no way I could do otherwise when I am trying to give California voters choices at the ballot box, other than Democrats and Republicans.

With the Green Party endorsing Cobb over Nader/Camejo, our efforts to get them on the California ballot must increase, and fast.

The agenda for our June 28 meeting has been updated.

1. Introductions
2. Review of current signature gathering (How many signatures from SF/Bay Area do we have?)
3. Review of voter registration effort
4. Update on Nader/Camejo merchandise
5. Promotion of votenader.org web site
6. Future plans: signature gathering at "Fahrenheit 9/11" screenings and Rainbow Grocery, our next meeting, Nader's appearance in S.F. on July 16.


Please come to the June 28 meeting at City Blend Cafe (see below for more info about the time and address).

Best,
Michael Petrelis

Subj: Nader meeting on Monday

To: M Petrelis



Michael,
Just wondering whether you know about any Nader 2004 merchandise. Do you know if it's out yet. Also, did you say you're going to have petitions on Monday evening. Also, even though I know Michael Moore isn't supporting Ralph this year I thing if we get a bunch of people to head out to the movie theaters where Fahrenheit 9/11 is playing. We should be able to pick up a bunch of signatures. People will sign up after watching the film, I'm sure.
See you Monday,
