TULSI 2020
Dear Ed,
Thank you! With your help, we met and exceeded our fundraising goal for the FEC filing deadline last night, pulling in a record total of 5,000 individual donations in one day.
Because you stepped up to be part of that effort, we're starting this new quarter strong and ready to take our message of peace and prosperity for the American people farther than ever before.
With aloha,
All of us for TULSI 2020

Coolness
Now it's worth watching the debates.
I donated to her a month ago.
I saw her on Jimmy Dore yesterday talking about our regime change wars, and it really caught my attention when she said, "This is not a game."
It was a moment of rare authenticity in politics.
ditto for me, glad she got enough individual donors
I also pointed dkmich and eyo to her interview on this Jimmy Dore clip. I hope they consider it changing a bit their opinions about her.
And I hope she doesn't use the usual words in campaign ads about prosperity etc. Can't hear those anymore, too often used by misleading folks in media and by campaigners.

They dropped Part 2 of that interview this a.m.

We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.
Fantastic!! She certainly deserves it. All
these others think they belong up there on that stage and so do their supporters.
Tulsi Gabbard does too.

She had a big push from the YouTube guys in LA

Seriously, her FAQ page is full of good info. I asked about her pro-choice position and within the hour they had a Women's Issues response up

Others here
worked much harder on this. They're the ones that got me off my wallet...
Thanks to them.

Prof: No. No. To ancient Greece where burning Sapho stood beside the wine dark sea. Wa de do da! Nancy, I’ve invented a time machine!

Oops. I was trying to post to you.
But it posted in the wrong place.
Thanks for the news, Ed. I'm sure yours was the deciding endorsement
That's fast!
It is empowering to have a campaign that is so responsive. Good to see she is surrounded by a top notch team. Her voice will make an important difference in the Democratic line up. In the past few days, there has been vicious and reactionary push back against her in the jungle. Her vision has them frightened.
Clearly, "President" Gabbard would be incapable
of managing our critical "special relationship" with the current administration of Iceland. Given the linchpin role of Iceland in our national security operations in the North Atlantic, can we doubt that she'd drag us into a regime change war?

If you cannot accept these facts, I cannot fake an interest in any of your opinions.
Good news and what is wrong with TYT and Tulsi
I just happened to pick up MCSC doing a rebuttal to TYT (Ana K) really attacking Tulsi for not being progressive. She really created straw men/distorted Tulsi's positions and even went to do the typical character assassination by saying Bannon supported her or some such shit.
TYT seems to be morphing into MSNBC-lite or a video channel version of TOP.
(It smells to me of a paid political hit job ala Markos and his consulting work while running TOP.)
Ana K got a lot of well desrved push back on her hatchet job.
TYT was basically forced into doing an interview (Ana K was apparently excluded).
Cenk was pretty aggressive but Tulsi did well.
Tulsi continues to refine her presentation & will be ready when the debates come around.

Yah, I would get angry at the hatchet jobs, but not anymore.
It was good practice leading up to the debates. She knows what smears to expect. She can have well thought out and short answers.
I still don't get why TYT did the attacks and aggressive interview in the first place. Well, but then again, they were totally into their version of Maddow on Russiagate. It might be all about views, clicks, and members, which I suspect maybe closer to TOP than C99.
She hasn't quite reached 65,000 yet
The email was a bit misleading. It said they reached their fundraising goals for the first quarter. But apparently the first quarter goal wasn't the 65,000 unique donors they need to be in the first debate.
If I had to guess, their first quarter fundraising goal was a specific dollar amount.
According to Tulsi's campaign, by 12 AM March 31 (FEC 1st quarter reporting deadline), they had reached the 57,292 donor mark. It sounds like they'll hit the big 65,000 pretty soon.
