Friends,
This may very well be one of the biggest blessing of the campaign for yes on prop 8. In order to be effective, it will call for immediate action from the comfort of your home or office. I'll share first what has been done, and then what we need to do to take advantage of this opportunity to win on Tuesday. This is the final stretch, and your actions now may secure our victory.
WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE
The Black community is overwhelmingly in support of YES ON 8. The NAACP President came out against it. Like the CA Teachers Union speaking against without consulting the teachers, the Alice Huffman, NAACP President did the same thing, and we just found out why.
Alice Huffman, President of NAACP owns a company by the name of A C Public Affairs Inc. This company was paid over $198,000. by the No on 8 campaign. This might explain the disconnect between the African American community who supports 8 and the NAACP's coming out against it. We found this information on the CA Secretary of State's website.

WHAT IS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY
Send this email to everyone you know in CA
Call all local media in your areas, TV, newspaper and radio and ask them are they aware of this
Call in to talk radio shows to share this news
Flood the local NAACP chapter presidents in your city with calls and ask if they have received funds from the $198,000. that was paid to Janice Huffman's company by the No campaign (responses should be reported to the local media) CA NAACP phone numbers http://californianaacp.org/local/
Have any member of the NAACP call their chapter to express outrage over this payoff and demand their membership dues be returned
Pass out the attached fliers to African American, Latino and other congregations this Sunday, in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean etc.
Call Rev. Amos Brown President of the SF Branch, who is extremely upset over the money, especially since the local chapters are suffering. Ask him did he receive any part of the $198,033. (415) 922-0650

I have sent the email to everyone on my email list that lives in California and the little side benefit of that is I was able to clear out those email addresses that were no longer valid! Anyway some have sent back emails saying they are calling Roger Hedgecock and other radio stations!
You are doing a great job and I am so happy to be your grandmother! You have awesome children, too!
