Hi guys,

I wanted to let you know about The American Prospect's new special report on a process called vote by mail (VBM).  This is where you can find the May VBM special report.  I've made sure that you can access it for free.

The VBM special report details the VBM system which is enjoying success in Oregon and has the potential to go nationwide.  We've assembled some of the brightest minds to discuss the intricacies of the VBM system, including:

Gore Reborn

Hello all,

I work at The American Prospect and I wanted to tell you about our next cover story.  It's not on newsstands yet, but you can read it online: www.prospect.org/gorereborn.  

I want to give you some additional info to

  1. provide simple bullet points for anyone who wants to write about the prime nuggets in the article
  2. provide references of people who were waiting for a Gore cover article (so that we can prove it's part of a movement and not an isolated story)
  3. touch base with the Kos community before going to the larger traditional media.

Please check out after the jump for this info.

Santorum's Jackpot

DJ works for the American Prospect.

Hey everyone.  I wanted to share some news with you all that's breaking today.  Will Bunch has an article in the March edition of The American Prospect about Senator Rick Santorum's finances, both personal and political. GOP leaders have appointed Santorum as their Senate point man on ethics reform, but this article raises some serious questions about the way he conducts Pennsylvanians' business.

For instance, Santorum secured a mortgage refinancing in 2002 from a private Philadelphia bank on his $757,000 Leesburg, Virginia McMansion. The bank says it offers mortgages only to its clients, who must have investment assets of $250,000. On his disclosure form covering the period when he got the refinancing, Santorum listed less than $140,000 in total assets. And directors and officers of the bank have donated $24,000 to his campaign.

You can read the full article here: Santorum's Jackpot.  And the sidebar (about the charity) is here: Sour Charity.  And feel free to recommend this post only if you think other folks should see this info.
