Yesterday we answered the call to take back America by rallying on Wall Street.  I was pleased with the turnout.  I applaud DC37  and CWA LOCAL 1180 who showed up strong and ready to fight.  There were the young and the very old.  There were not so young and the getting old and we all understood the urgency of standing up and being UNITED.  We cannot expect change if we don’t change.  I see that my local CWA 1101 needs a little more prodding and information on becoming a part of this history changing event, and change we must achieve or we will be handed defeat.  We must make this rally the starting point of revolt.  We must reject the plan that the corporations have for their dominance and mugging of union.  For they understand that if they defeat union, the rest of America will follow.  Union is the base for all working peoples salaries and minimum wage!  We are very important to the structure of democracy, for there can be no democracy with out the middle-class.  So we must stop this corporatocracy and get back to we the people.  We the people do the work and share in less and less of the profits. We must fight to take back our country from the Robber Barons!

This rally is a great opportunity for UNION members to UNITE and speak with one voice telling wall street that its time to do  what the U.S. Constitution meant for us to do as citizens. It states:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

While the Tea Party Patriots march for less government, we as union will march for the right to enforce the Declaration of Independence which tell us that all men are created equal, not just the wealthy has the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  We must make sure that the government does its job and not let this democratic republic turn into a feudal oligarchy.  Our founders fought a war against an aristocratic, oligarchic nation,  (see America The Story of Us on the history channel) and that requires  a VIABLE MIDDLE CLASS.
