I just gave a contribution to the Kerry campaign. I used to donate to most of the usual lefty causes-- Amnesty International, Greenpeace, the ACLU. But this is the first time I've donated to a political campaign because this is the first time I think it's ever been so important that our guy win.
The readership on this site is almost half US-based and half international. You lovely people in the US, please do something to help out-- There's not much I can do from Denmark. Click the link above to go to Kerry's volunteer page. They're going to need a lot of canvassers in the next few months. It's a miserable job, but a dedicated core of volunteers can really make a difference.
Just so ya know, I hear grassroots political orgs are a really good way to meet politically motivated and potentially libidinous single people. And canvassers usually get, you know, pizza or something.
