SUCCESS in Ohio!
I am thrilled to announce that the Ohio Democratic Party voted today to adopt
the US Department of Peace in its state platform. This victory was won through
the dynamic efforts of the Ohio NLP.
This groundbreaking Peace proposal, which was drafted by Rep. Dennis Kucinich with my
input and wording from our NLP platform, calls for a cabinet-level US Department of Peace,
funded at 1% of the military budget (or about $4 Billion per year)!
The US Department of Peace is designed to prevent violent conflict through
scientifically proven, peaceful approaches. It also includes sponsorship for a University
of World Peace, which will train professional peacemakers in effective conflict-resolution
and peace-promoting skills. This is the ninth State Party to adopt this resolution in the
last few months, and we’re building momentum. The funding of this US Department
of Peace, when adopted by Congress, will fulfill a core mission of the Natural Law Party.
According to Matt Trafis, Co-Director of the Kucinich for President Campaign in Ohio, “Today’s
triumph would never have happened without the Natural Law Party.”
CONGRATULATIONS OHIO NLP!
A STAR in Ohio!
 Ohio NLP superstar Kara Anastasio has won the Democratic
nomination for US Congress (7th District) for the second, consecutive campaign—a
remarkable achievement in itself.
Kara is waging a dynamic campaign with a top-flight campaign staff, and stands
at 42% in the polls and rising. She has put long-term incumbent David Hobson on the run.
(Hobson has one of the most deplorably pro-special interest, anti-environment, anti-peace
voting records in Congress.)
While Hobson has raked in over $1 million in (largely) special interest dollars, Kara
has refused all PAC money (despite wide-ranging endorsements and offers of PAC
support by labor and other sectors). On an absolute shoe-string, her populist,
anti-corruption message has put the senior Republican congressman on the defensive.
Kara has the greatest chance of winning a Congressional race of
any of our candidates since 1992!
PLEASE GIVE HER A BOOST!
There are 30,000 readers of this NLP NewsFlash. If we each contribute $10 now,
SHE COULD EASILY WIN THIS RACE! And we’d have a powerful, enlightened
representative in the US Congress!

This is all such exciting news.
CONGRATULATIONS, AND MY DEEPEST THANKS TO EVERYONE!
