Barack Obama, with his talk of change, is nothing more than an old-style machine oriented politician.  Would it not be a refreshing change if Mr. Obama were to give consideration to assisting in healing the Party by embracing Hillary Clinton and her supporters?  Would it not be a refreshing change if Mr. Obama were to assist in efforts to retire Hillary's debt?  Would it not be a refreshing change if Mr. Obama were to include the voices, issues, and concerns of 18 million who voted for Hillary Clinton as part of the Democratic Party platform?

Instead, Mr. Obama has refused all efforts at reconciliation.  He is no agent of change.

This being a fact, it is time for us, 18 million strong, to be the change agent.  Here's how:

1.  Two efforts underway to help retire Hillary's debt:

     a.  Independence from Obama - Donate $20.08 on July 4th

     b.  On July 19th, in honor of Seneca Falls, donate $7.19

2.  Major donors and bundlers must not donate to Mr. Obama's campaign.  Send letters and place calls to these donors and begin soon.  You can find many of them here:  http://www.whitehouseforsale.o...

3.  Sign the Pledge at http://www.iownmyvote.com.  Strength in numbers and we can clearly show Mr. Obama and DNC they must earn our votes.  They must include us.

4.  Continue to pressure Super Delegates to follow the will of the people in their states by endorsing the candidate that won the popular vote in their state.

5.  Mail and email those politicians who stood staunchly behind HRC to let them know we thank them and that they have our support.

6.  Boycott all forms of media that participated in slander, sexism, and misogyny.  Among them:  Oprah Winfrey, MSNBC, CNN, and print media including the New York Times.

7.  Thank the leaders of Trade Unions that supported HRC including AFSCME, AFT, UFT, and the IUPAT.

8.  Publicly denounce members of Congress who participated in and supported this rigged election including:  Nancy Pelosi, Claire McCaskill, Ted Kennedy, and Robert Wexler.

9.  Withhold personal donations to the DNC, DSCC, and the DCCC.

10.  Financially support like-minded candidates up for office this election cycle.

Hillary Clinton is our nominee, regardless.  Let us all work toward promoting her agenda, protecting her legacy, and ensuring that she is our Commander in Chief.  Let us work toward betterment of our Democracy.
