if they come to my house, i'll probably not answer the door. i generally don't if i'm not expecting someone.

however, if i happen to feel social...i might smile and say that i hope our country moves in a positive direction but that i don't sign anything for anyone.

sounds a bit better than telling them they can shove it.

I am already signed up on the website and noone bothers me. I get updates from the site and that is all.

and you did that on your own....i don't need people coming up to me to sign a pledge.

For the people who not aware and would like to help it is a necessity to find them. You have the right to refuse. This is America after all.

ok...maybe i have missed something here.

winx said this pledge was during the elections to support his 3 main topics.

you say it's to get people to do volunteer work

i don't think it's to get a militia either....i find it a pest though

are we all reading the same pledge?

Rose, Willing posted two unrelated links.

they don't appear unrelated.

one is the actual form, and the other shows how the volunteers are supposed to go about getting signatures for said form.

The Pledge Project Canvass Guide
Get StartedBeforeDuringAfter “A budget is more than simply numbers on a page. It is a measure of how well we are living up to our obligations to ourselves and one another. It is a test for our commitment to making America what it was always meant to be -- a place where all things are possible for all people. ” - President Barack Obama

President Obama recently submitted his first budget and this bold plan is needed now more than ever as we continue to face an unprecedented economic crisis. Now it's up to you to organize the support President Obama needs for this plan throughout the country. It's the only way we'll truly get the change this country needs.

Create a Pledge Project Canvass in your neighborhood on Saturday, March 21st, to knock-on-doors and ask your neighbors to take a pledge of support for President Obama's bold approach to renew America’s economy and invest in energy, health care, and education.

This guide will provide you with all the tools and resources you need to hold a successful Pledge Project Canvass.

• A canvass is an organized effort to talk with community members face-to-face about the issues that matter to them.
• Canvassing in local neighborhoods (both at the doors and in high traffic areas) is one of the most effective ways to reach out to community members about the issues that are affecting our nation.
• In order to realize the change that we all fought so hard for, we must continue to reach out to our neighbors and involve them in this movement.
• Collecting pledges in support of President Obama’s budget and its investments in health care, education, and energy will allow us to demonstrate the urgent need for leadership in Washington around these important issues.


It is up to each one of us to take the fate of our country into our hands. Use this guide to start planning your own Pledge Project Canvass today.

I don't understand what the big stink is about here.

Rose I think in my case you may be right. I am talking about something different.
