Blue Blues

They said,  "Have you seen the news?"
Get out every vote or we lose!
The base said, "Oh horrors!
We'll go knocking on doors
Once we find our comfortable shoes..."

Fracking, Hacking, Super-PAC-ing, Activist-Tracking

Fracking, hacking

Super-PAC-ing                              
Activist tracking
Corporate backing
Shooter packing
Judicial stacking
Employee sacking
Jobs a-lacking
Budget whacking
Cuts still smacking
Dems' shellacking
Bold hijacking
Candidates quacking
Yak-yak-yakking
Then backtracking
So nerve-wracking
Veneer is cracking.

Post-election:
Debt Collection.
System's rusted.
You - disgusted.
Social Security
No more a surety.
You - enraged?
Get engaged.

A 2nd Treasure Trove of Info: How to Promote the Vote!

Is your nonprofit organization considering the prospect of:

• registering people to vote,
• getting out the vote, and/or
• other election-related activities?

If you answered "yes," check out "The Underutilized - Yet Vital - Role of America's Nonprofits," Tim Delaney's 7/11/12 post (in Nonprofit Knowledge Matters,  a publication of the National Council of Nonprofits) on how to do so legally and where to find all kinds of additional related resources. 

If you answered "no," check out  "The Underutilized - Yet Vital - Role of America's Nonprofits," anyway; it might just inspire your organization to promote the vote!
