November 2 must be a massive and public proclamation that WE REFUSE TO BE RULED IN
THIS WAY. November 2 must call out to the tens of millions more who are now
agonizing and disgusted. November 2 will be the beginning -- a giant first step in
forcing the Bush regime to step down, and a powerful announcement that we will not
stop until he does so -- and it will join with and give support and heart to people
all over the globe who so urgently need and want this regime to be stopped. Endorsed
