Dear Nader/Gonzalez Supporter,
Ralph Nader and Matt Gonzalez are bringing their Independent Presidential campaign to New York City October 15 & 16! Nader and Gonzalez will address a major crowd in the historic Cooper Union on October 15th at 6pm and take it to "The Street" to protest the bailout in front of the NYSE at noon on October 16th. We are organizing a kick-off meeting this Thursday, Oct. 9 in Union Sq. Park at 7pm (corner Union Sq. East & E. 14th St.) at the George Washington statue, for more info on the kick-off meeting and how you can help promote these events call Austin at (804) 852-6116 (if it rains, we will move to Whole Foods cafeteria).
Cooper Union Rally
· Ralph Nader is the only major Presidential candidate who supports jail time, not bail time for Wall Street fat cats, so come hear him speak in the historic Cooper Union instead of watching the game show debates on TV. Ralph will address the crowd on serious issues like withdrawing our corporate and military forces from Iraq and more lighthearted, entertaining subjects such as strengthening shareholder power and taxing derivative speculation.

Wall Street Rally
* Join us in New York City next to the New York Stock Exchange to let the crooks on Wall Street and their politician lackeys know that the American people are not happy with their crooked deals. Ralph and other important figures will be speaking before a diverse crowd objecting to the bailout. This is going to be an afternoon to remember!
Thurs. Oct. 16th, 12 Noon
Ralph Nader, "Protest the Bailout"
Federal Hall, next to the NYSE
26 Wall Street, NYC
(804) 852-6116 or events@votenader.org
If you cannot make it to the protest or rally, and even if you can, please help us spread the word by forwarding the information to anyone you know who might join us!
Debates
* He will also comment on the Presidential debates from which he was excluded. In another part of the city, while Ralph speaks in Cooper Union, the two corporate candidates will be debating each other without even mentioning the issues that Ralph will talk about and that matter to the American people. Since 1988, the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) has sponsored every presidential debate and kept the discussion empty and staged. Since its inception, the CPD has always been headed by two former chairs of the Democratic and Republican parties. In 1987, the League of Women Voters refused to sponsor any more presidential debates, “because the demands of the two campaign organizations would perpetrate a fraud on the American voter.”
The Nader/Gonzalez Campaign is on a mission to open these debates for third party candidates, and bring back democracy to the American Voters!
