to regain our voice in the Democratic Party
From: Murphy
This is a huge effort and the project I am asking you to undertake will take some time and a small amount of money for postage. Feel free to use the template letter below, or write your own. Remember the three Puma PAC watchwords: concise, precise, and brief.
Our goal is to force the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee to hold a hearing to decide whether or not Donna Brazile is entitled to her status as Super Delegate.
IMPORTANT!
1. Have your letter notarized. Do NOT sign it before you bring it to
your notary (town hall, bank, insurance agent -- these are all good
places to find a notary).
2. Send your letter "Return Receipt Requested" at the Post Office.
Here is a template for your letter:
DATE
Democratic Nat'l Committee
Credentials Committee
Attn: Alexis Herman
430 S. Capitol St. SE
2nd Floor
Washington, DC 20003
Ms. Herman,
I am writing to demand a meeting of the Rules and Bylaws Committee of the Democratic National Committee to consider the Super Delegate
status of Donna Brazile.
Early in the primary campaign, Ms. Brazile stated that she would resign as a member of the DNC if the Super Delegates decided the outcome of this election. By making such a provocative and divisive statement, in direct contradiction of the stated role of Super Delegates, calls into serious question Ms.Brazile's commitment to our Party and to the democratic process.
Because of her threatening, biased, and divisive actions throughout
this campaign season, Ms. Brazile does NOT deserve the status of Super Delegate to our Convention. She promised on national television she would resign if events during the primaries and caucuses led to a selection of our nominee by Super Delegates. This turn of events has indeed come to pass, and Ms. Brazile should be held to her word. She proclaims loudly and often that she is a person of honor and integrity. Now is her opportunity to show by her actions, for once, that this is true.
Sincerely,
Your full name and address
Democratic Party member
Please send this letter to the RBC as soon as you can.

FROM: Murphy
Subject: Today's PROWL- Letter one of four
Hello Puma PAC,
This is day four of taking our message to the Super Delegates. We have sent over 150,000 letters to super delegates since last Tuesday -- in just THREE days of organized, collective ACTION. You've all been reading the polls and watching the pundits. The narrative is changing; the cracks WE have known about since April can NO LONGER be denied by our increasingly frantic leadership. We CANNOT stop now.
On June 7th we said, "Thank you Hillary Clinton, we'll take it from here." Well, we mean what we say and we say what we mean. We stood up together on June 7th to continue the fight for REAL Democratic values -- like enfranchisement and equality and fair elections -- when the DNC and the media succeeded at pushing her out of the race with their double standards and sexist bias.
We intend to keep our promise.
Thank you and Good Luck,
Murphy

Dear Super Delegate,
I am a Democratic voter and member of Puma PAC, People United Means Action (www.pumapac.org). We represent the more than 18 million American voters who supported Senator Clinton and who reject the selection of Barack Obama as the Democratic nominee.
Barack Obama is simply the weaker of the two final candidates for nomination. He is losing ground to Senator McCain every day. Millions of Democrats vow not to vote for him in November because of his inexperience and unreadiness to lead.
Only Senator Clinton can win back the White House for our Party in November.
PLEASE do your job and support Senator Clinton for nomination in Denver.
The Democratic VOTERS want you to support a real winner and leader. The American PEOPLE want you to. Common Sense wants you to. A commitment to DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES wants you to.
PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING. AMERICAN DEMOCRATS AND VOTERS WILL SUPPORT YOU FOR YOUR COURAGE AND WILLINGNESS TO STAND UP TO PARTY INSIDERS BY REPRESENTING THE VOICE OF THE VOTERS.
Sincerely,
Puma PAC democrat
PumaPac.org
Thank you and good luck.
