Rudy Pledges to Go “On The Record”

December 21st, 2007 at 3:31 pm | posted by Field

Rudy New Hampshire was still digging out from a weekend snow blast, but that did not stop Rudy Giuliani from campaigning this week…nor did it stop Michael Castaldo, ONE’s Marine, from making it out on the campaign trail for the poorest people on Earth.

Mayor Giuliani had only one scheduled campaign event on Monday - and it was at a NH business and closed to the public. But Michael figured that the mayor may make some “unannounced” stops while he was in the Dover area.

He send me this:

I called a friend that was “in the know” about Rudy and he told me the Mayor was going to do an editorial board meeting at Foster’s Daily Democrat in Dover, but that right now, he was on his way to the “Christmas Dove” in Barrington… 5 miles from my house! So a quick shower and shave, and I was on the move! The owners of the shop are ONE members and were sad they did not have their ONE shirts on! But they were glad to get another band as was their two year old daughter.

When the Mayor arrived, he shook my hand, and I was able to ask him if he would agree to make a video to go “On the Record”. He told me he would be glad to, and that he would get in touch with HQ on the subject. Later after choosing a Santa clause character for his house, he posed for a photo with me.

The snow is here in NH but that doesn’t stop ONE Vote ‘08 and the voices of 2.4 million ONE members that are making sure the next president of the United States is a leader in the fight against global disease, and extreme - stupid - poverty. Way to Michael!

    Way to go Michael! I called NYC and stated if he didn’t go on the record with one no vote from me and left a message to that effect to where ever it went in “voice mail land”.

    Poverty is real here and in other nations. If he doesn’t have a plan how can he help the working class poor and stop terrorism. They all tie in together.

    Peace,
