This just in from TechPresident:

NPC is "a very cool exercise in democracy that is pushing to get all American citizens — not just those lucky enough to live in Iowa or New Hampshire — involved in the process of selecting our next president." Link

We'd like to introduce another great proposal to fix the current primary system -- a system more and more people believe is broken.

Introducing the Spinney Plan, from Massachusetts-based writer and political commentator Mike Spinney.

The "primary system has become a huge propaganda event for the conditioning the American public, repeating the lie that ours is but a two-party political system," writes Spinney on Spot-on.com the revered political blog. "Worse, the scam is pulled off with such genius that taxpayers don’t even gripe over the fact that cost of the propaganda campaign is paid for out of their own pockets... I see the NPC as complementary to the Spinney Plan's voting system since NPC offers a national caucus that builds enthusiasm prior to and presages the results of a the structured, two-tiered primary that - were I in charge of national politics - we'd have adopted a long time ago."

You'd be well-served to read the "Spinney Plan" here. And definitely read Spinney's endorsement of the National Caucus on Spot-On.com by clicking here.

From someone who really knows about the power of the Internet to help cause change and influence people's lives for the better.

"People are using the Internet to change the way we govern ourselves. The National Presidential Caucus can help people make a real difference, and that's never been more important than now." - Craig Newmark, customer service rep & founder, craigslist.

Thanks for the endorsement Craig!

We're entering the homestretch for the first-ever National Caucus on December 7th. People across the country are registering caucuses at a nice clip. This is amazing! Now's the time to email your friends and family to get them involved. Now is the time to call your local media to let them know what's going on. The NPC team working behind the scenes knows we can't do it alone -- and we're not too proud to ask for help ... so please help now. This is participatory democracy at its best. Join in -- and spread the word!

Thanks to everyone who headed out into their neighborhoods on Friday night for the first National Straw Poll! We're still pulling together the data and results as it continues to come in from around the country, but there's one thing that we know already from what we've seen: this critical road-test proved the enormous potential for the National Presidential Caucus on December 7th.

Less than 48 hours to go until the Straw Poll - are you ready!?

As you know, November 9th is the dress rehearsal for the big day. It's a dry run so you can get the feel for what it's like to run a caucus.

Organizers, we've put together a brief Caucus Organizer Guide in a PDF document for you to print out and bring with you. You can download it here (right-click to save it to your computer).

Inside you'll learn the basics on how to run a caucus, what to expect, how to report your results, and some tips to make it easy and fun. In all, this document should answer any questions you may have about hosting your caucus tomorrow night.

If you have any other questions, please email us at info@nationalcaucus.org and we'll help out the best we can.

The NPC team is beginning to ramp up for National Caucus Day on December 7th and will keep you posted of the latest and greatest developments.

To say the least, we are really excited by all the activity so far.

Go caucus tomorrow night and be sure to have fun!
