The Next Chapter
June 6th, 2008 by Senator GravelPower to the People
Dear Friends:
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your support of my recent presidential candidacy and for your support for my public efforts in the past.
My electoral career spanned more than 50 years and 18 campaigns as a candidate. Some of you will remember that, when I lost my Senate re-election in 1980, I was disillusioned with representative government. But I continued my interest in and study of public policy and of the problems of human governance, eventually finding others who shared my goal of improving our broken representative democracy.
Power to the People
March 13th, 2008 by jpeters
One of the major goals of my presidential campaign has always been to empower you, the voter, through the enactment of the National Initiative for Democracy. The National Initiative will equip the people with the central power of government – lawmaking – and citizens in every government jurisdiction of the
The fact is, representative government is broken, and there are only two venues for change: One is the government, where the problem exists, and two is the people. Correction can only take place with the people. That is why I am asking you to take a few moments to learn more about the National Initiative at the NI4D web site. Please help spread the word by encouraging others to educate themselves as well. To change the paradigm of human governance, we have to empower the people to become lawmakers. That is the solution.
Senator Gravel's National Initiative was voted #3 for the next President's agenda.

My campaign for president has ended, however, I still need your help to offset the debt that was incurred during my campaign because obviously, I did not take money from lobbyists, big business or PACs.
I will be devoting the rest of my life to secure the enactment of The National Initiative so that you will be able to vote on the issues that effect your life.
