[AAACE-NLA] advocacy through moveon.org

[David Rosen]

Hello Rose, and others,

Because the voting at the Moveon American Vision Web site is ongoing 
and dynamic it changes the priority of the goals all the time.  
Yesterday at one point it was 10, then 29.  Today I couldn't find it it 
was so low in priority (sigh.)  My goal focused on adult literacy -- 
literacy for all.  The goals that seem to stay at the top of the list 
of hundreds of goals -- what people are voting for --are broader.    
The lesson, for me at least, is that to get the support we need, we 
have to have a broader education goal focusing on adults -- one which 
specifically includes literacy, English language, workforce 
development, family literacy, community education and lifelong 
learning.  If someone wants to post that goal, let us know so we can 
quick go vote for it!
