The following email was sent out from the Peace Day House Party coordinator for the Kucinich campaign:

Hi Kucitizens. I have 3 pieces of incredible news to share.
1) WE’RE MAKING A STATEMENT FOR PEACE
As you’ve probably heard by now, Kucitizens have organized over 1000 Peace Day Parties in all 50 states for Sunday, September 21st, the International Day of Peace! Kucinich supporters will also be attending peace-related events and activities and holding Mini Peace Day parties with families and friends. Kucitizens are also making a strong statement for peace through online contributions. Every dollar given to the Kucinich campaign is worth 2 dollars for peace – because Dennis Kucinich is the real Peace Candidate and all contributions up to $250 dollars are doubled with matching funds. This past week alone, you’ve given over $100,000! On Sunday, let’s try to raise half a million dollars – with matching funds, that’ll be a MILLION DOLLARS FOR PEACE!

2. LISTEN-IN-LIVE AT A PEACE DAY PARTY WITH DENNIS!
Dennis will be at two Peace Day parties on Sunday. You can listen in through live national conference calls. At 12:30 -1:30 p.m. PST (3:30-4:30 EST) Dennis will be at a big Peace Day Party in a Latino community in San Diego. The second conference call will take place from 6:15 to 7:15 p.m. PST (9:15 to 10:15 EST) from Los Angeles, with Ed Begley Jr. and James Cromwell also at the party and on the call.
There are 1000 lines available for each call, so be sure to be there on time. There is no charge to join the call, but you’ll be billed by your phone company as you would a regular toll call. This is a muted call (you’ll only be able to listen in), so if you’re at your own Peace Day Party, feel free to dial in by speakerphone and let the whole party listen in.
If you dial in before the scheduled time, you’ll hear music until the call begins. If you dial in after the call begins and you hear music, it means there are already 1000 callers on the line.
To join the conference call at 12:30 pm PST (3:30 pm EST) dial: 512-225-3250
Then type in the access code followed by the pound sign (#): 33250
To join the conference call at 6:15 pm PST (9:15 EST) dial: 512-225-3250
Then type in the access code followed by the pound sign (#): 44111
Be a part of the action! Tell your friends! Share your encouragment, comments, and house party experience via email to houseparty@kucinich.us or live on our ongoing conference call from 1:15 to 3:15 EST before joining Dennis at 3:30 PM (EST) for his first Peace Day Party. Emailed comments and results will be read on the call. Dial: 512-225-3250 Access code 33250
3) LIVE ONLINE FUNDRAISING SITE
We can do it! Want to join in the excitement as we rally Kucinich supporters around the nation to reach our goal? On Sunday, www.KucinichParty.us will go live, and supporters and Peace Day Partyicipants nationwide can link together. Every house party will be able to enter the number of guests and the donations they collect. There will be online encouraging messages from Dennis and we can all watch as the funds grow to meet our National Goal.
To be part of this link-up, simply log your computer to www.KucinichParty.us and enter your name, your City, select your State from the pull-down-window. Then enter your E-mail address as your password and click the login button.
That takes you to the main screen where you can enter how many guests are at your party and how much you have collected in donations. After you enter those numbers just click the “Update Your Party Info” button and your numbers will be added to the National and State totals. If more party guests arrive, just increase the numbers and click the “Update Your Party Info” button again. Your guests can even make contributions online right at your party by clicking the “Make a Donation” button and following the online instructions.
If you’re not at a party, you can help increase your state’s totals by making an online contribution and adding it to your state in the method described above. This Live Site makes it easy and fun to see what funds are raised in each state and the National Totals as well – and just remember the numbers posted will only be a fraction of the total money raised on Sunday as not everyone will be able to sign on and let us know how much they’ve raised.
PLUS! You can play Kucinich-Music from the site, and Dennis will be sending live messages to the House Parties via computer!
Peace Day parties will be going on all afternoo n and evening and across all the time zones on Sunday, September 21st so log on and join in.
This is an exciting time -- share your vision!
Happy Peace Day everybody!
May Peace Prevail On Earth,
Bob Silverstein
Director of Endorsements & House Parties
Kucinich For President
