To be fair, I will post one from the other side!

Please tell me who are the paid one to show up? The American grassroots or the paid union and orgized shop the American asshole-turff?

somehow abortion just doesn’t seem like health care reform...its more about killing harmless babies

Wow, I’m confused who side is she on?

Here is how they get their volunteers: (Prorbably with taxpayer funds).——————————

Job opportunites working on urgent grassroots campaigns
This summer we have the opportunity to make huge gains on critical issues, from repowering America with clean, renewable energy and reducing our dependence on oil, to fixing the high cost of health care, to winning the battle for equal rights.

America’s leading advocacy groups are gearing up to meet these challenges this summer. In order to win, they need citizen support and grassroots action. That’s where we come in.

At the Fund for the Public Interest, we’ve been organizing campaigns to protect the environment, stand up for the public interest, and defend human rights for more than 25 years. We’ve helped cut global warming pollution with Environment America. We’ve helped pass laws that require drug companies to disclose more of the dangerous side-effects of their drugs with NJPIRG. And working with the Human Rights Campaign, we helped organize the grassroots opposition needed to defeat the discriminatory Federal Marriage Amendment.

Now is the time to work for change
We need people like you—lots of people like you—to go out in communities around the country this summer and help make change happen. And you can earn money doing it. Earn $4,000-$6,000 this summer.

Get skills. Learn vital campaign skills including how to fundraise, run a news conference and mobilize activists.
Know the issues. Learn about the issues from some of the nation’s top advocates, organizers and experts.
Be part of a winning team. Work alongside other motivated staff who share your passion for change. Make lasting friendships.
Leadership Opportunities: We also have opportunities for additional responsibility as a Field Manager or Campaign Coordinator. Gain great experience—like an internship, but you get paid.

Field Managers work with the director to meet the office goals and increase the impact of our campaigns. Field Managers make an additional $500-$1,000 over the summer.
Campaign Coordinators work closely with the directors to develop and implement winning campaign tactics, such as organizing the media, building coalitions, and writing letters-to-the-editor.
