Reach out to those you know on the Democratic National Commitee and tell them you support Howard Dean for Chairman of the DNC:

Why is Howard the right person for the DNC now?
He is fresh and bold, and will attract other fresh bold people–which is what we need now in this early rebuilding stage.
He is substantive, with a caring, thoughtful, deep interest in
health care, in children and families, and in how government can give
poor families and families in crisis a helping hand when they need
it. This topic–how to support families–is important and
relevant and uniting–and requires bold solutions.
He is honest and direct, and people out in the country know this.
He is our John McCain–authentic and real, whether you agree or
disagree with him. And authenticity is something people crave.
He is the strongest, most inclusive “brand name” in the Democratic
Party right now. He is seen, interestingly, as a “winner.”
OK, so here is an outline of the campaign for Howard, which is also a campaign for new Democrats and a new America:
1. Find out who is on the Democratic National Committee.
Call and visit them — they are local to you — and tell them you
support Howard.
2. Write to Howard at DFA and ask him to run.
3. Consider pledging money to the DNC IF Howard is the
leader. Make clear that if he is not chosen, you will give it to
another organization that reflects your values–such as DFA.
4. If Howard is chosen to head the DNC, pull together to make the DNC OUR organization!
5. If Howard is not chosen, consider forming an alternative to the DNC that we can ask Howard to become the head of.
