Action Alert: No Negative Advertising Campaign In
keeping with our mission of promoting a nonviolent way of life that
will bring about a peaceful global community, the We've
posted a letter so that concerned citizens can use as a template. Below
is our letter to the media. Peace
Good People! This
peace is difficult to find in our world today with all the violence
and negativity that surrounds us. It seems our freedom of speech has
been confused with a lack of respect. This is evident in many things
we hear and see on television but most definitely during our election
years. During
election times we find ourselves muting all campaign ads because we do
not want to hear someone pointing fingers and scandalously beating
down another human being with their mostly false statements.
Candidates rarely take time to tell us what they themselves will do to
make the lives of American people better. It is no wonder that when
they get elected they are not willing to work together.
It
seems that their desire for power has overshadowed the needs of the
American people, especially the poor and marginalized. We
would like to challenge at least one if not all candidates to take a
risk and stand for what is best for the majority of American people.
Speak to us about what they will do to make our life better and at the
same time show respect for candidates who have a different way of
meeting our needs. We further challenge them to do away with negative
ad campaigns that focus on the falsehoods and shortcomings of the
other candidates. In
a Spirit of Peace and Reconciliation,
