Voters Self Defense Manual Extraordinary people are gathering in an extraordinary place to create the nations' first Voter's Self-Defense System. Hundreds of young people from universities throughout the country are building a system to defend citizens from the manipulative and often abusive tactics employed by today's political parties and candidates. The Project was started by former Presidents Carter and Ford and other political leaders like John McCain, Geraldine Ferraro, and Michael Dukakis. The Project operates like the Peace Corps, with people signing up for two weeks to two years. The Project is being built at an extraordinary high-tech wilderness retreat in the Rocky Mountains and needs your help!

We can donate our time, but we lack the funds for everything from computers to desk chairs.
