[MCAEnews] Literacy President 2008

[The MCAE Advocate]

The following message is from MCAE member David Rosen. I urge you to consider participating in this important survey.

Kenny Tamarkin
Executive Director

Dear Colleague,

We need your opinion and your vote. Literacy President 2008 is a non-
partisan effort to increase national awareness of adult literacy
regardless of whom is elected. Literacy President provides members
of the adult education community with ways to be active participants
in the 2008 Presidential election. The first activity was generating
possible questions to ask the candidates. We now have 20 possible
questions, and they need to be narrowed to the top five.

This is your chance to vote on these, to help us narrow them to the
top five best questions. In the 2004 election, Literacy President
had over 1000 people -- practitioners, adult learners and others --
who voted for the top priority questions. This time our goal is 1500
people participating: students, practitioners and other advocates for
adult literacy. We are more than half way there, but the voting ends on
May 30th, so we hope you will weigh in well before then.
