Postcards to the President

Postcards to the President was my first venture into Activism. The idea is simple, but the follow through involved months of volunteer insanity. For me, it was a trial and error learning experience that allowed me to connect with people for all over the world. Riff Raff like you seemed to like the idea enough and they donated their time and resources and efforts and it was a considerably successful campaign considering it had zero budget. Special thanks to certain Riff Raffian: Beth, Bernardo, Steve, and Adam.

Postcards to the President never had the idea that it would change legislation. The idea was to get people talking about the issue.

After 15,000 postcards sent urging for the repeal of DOMA - not a single response. Change takes time.
