Leadership

The following is an email addressed to the Governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger. While his web site does contain a pathway to 'contact the governor' the link is apparently on Labor Day break just as our beloved Governor is...you can't email the governor...you only get routed to 'Cannot find server' page. We know you're listening Governor; we know you're keeping track of the pulse of your voters so heed this email... take action and be the Governor the state of California.


Governor Schwarzenegger,

California needs to do its part and take in survivors of Hurricane Katrina. We can begin building temporary housing that will be their residence until New Orleans has been revived. Don't second guess the need to help and house those affected by the storm...Californians will help and you should lead in that effort by welcoming survivors to California.

I am a registered voter and I am still a supporter of yours. The need for you to rise and show leadership for our state hasn't been greater. I am aware that you have a great many things to deal with, but don't hesitate like the local governments did in New Orleans. Your ability to rise above the political fray and lead Californians on issues with such a moral impact will be your litmus test for a next term or for any other aspirations of political representation that you may have.

You can no longer ride the fence Governor; you can no longer lean on phrases like...'let the courts decide'...You have to be a leader and choose the direction you want Californians to go. You have to stand for something or fall for everything. People are in need in the Gulf region and we have to help them... it's the right thing to do...it's the Californian thing to do...

Californians are aware of the oligarchy you are up against in the California Legislature...but YOU are the Governor and YOU are the Chief Executive of this state and YOU have to lead and state clearly where you stand...and if you stand with the people... then you don't wait on the courts to decide... you stand with the people...

The phone is ringing Governor Schwarzenegger, it's the people of California...will you answer?
