Governor Dean just announced an early and massive grassroots outreach effort, timed ahead of the 2006. It's time to start getting out message out in a simple way that positive change is possible and 2006 is a referendum on the direction of the country under Bush, NOT hundreds of individual races. The outreach focuses on a simple and clear six point message of a "Democratic Vision" of a new direction for America.

1. Honest Leadership & Open Government
2. Real Security
3. Energy Independence
4. Economic Prosperity & Educational Excellence
5. A Healthcare System that Works for Everyone
6. Retirement Security

To support this national outreach day, in addition to the printed materials, they have put up high resoulution PDF files you can download and print...nice. More resources, details and online signups are here...check it out...

"Dear Fellow Democrat,

Are you ready to make history?

Thanks to the overwhelming support from thousands of Democrats, who donated to get the literature for the canvass printed and shipped, we're on schedule and gearing up for the unprecedented Neighbor-to-Neighbor Organizing Day on April 29th.

On that Saturday, thousands of volunteers will recruit hundreds of thousands more Americans committed to changing the status quo this year during door-knocking events in communities across America.

Democrats have a clear vision for America, and we're going to get the word out by making personal contact with our neighbors. And along the way we will build new relationships among volunteers on the ground, a network that will have an impact beyond a single day.

Whether you've never volunteered or you're a seasoned door-knocking veteran, it is crucial that you take part in this historic organizing push.

Please RSVP for an event near you:

In many states, Democratic Party staff on the ground have already put together staging areas for massive voter contact events on the 29th. Thanks to donations from people like you, hundreds of thousands of pieces of literature are being printed and shipping in bulk to those locations right now.

If there isn't an event near you, don't worry. Some state parties will have canvassing events on alternate dates, or have other important events that planned for that weekend.

You can still plan your own canvass in your community. Our online tool makes the planning process easy, and if you create your event before April 10th, we will get doorhangers to you in time for your canvass on the 29th.

You can create your own event here:

Whether you're attending an event or hosting your own, we have also put together materials on the web to help you make your canvass as effective as possible."
