AREN’T YOU FORGETTING ANOTHER MOORE?

Mr. Moore,
My cousin, Jaime Kibben, would have been on the Oscar™stage with you when you brought up all the people nominated in the category of best Documentary Films. He worked on Daughter from Danaang. You won that year, Mr. Moore, and you showed chutzpah in your speech and in inviting all who were nominated that year in your category. My cousin’s ashes were in the pocket of the director of Daughter of Danaang. Jaime Kibben was killed a few months earlier in Israel, working on another documentary. Run a google. (By the way, I had a daughter who attended Columbine the year you documented the aftermath.)
You might say we have that “Kevin Bacon” connection. Then again, you might not ever read this letter. Will your letter-reader PLEASE forward this to the MM committee to send mail out to list members?
I attended that first antiwar rally in San Francisco. I was in town for Jaime’s memorial services. He was with me in spirit and in conscience. He died filming documentaries.
He would have jumped at supporting an alternative candidate and would have used all his extensive knowledge and talent to embrace a man named Frank Moore. You seem to have overlooked this campaign. Perhaps you think a long shot is not worth the film, the ink, the bytes it might take for you to send out a note about him. You were a long shot when at Mother Jones. You have been a long shot for a great deal of your career.
*Time to mention a long shot, Mr. Moore?*
Remember your roots, Mr. Moore. Before you were embracing Jesse Jackson, you were embracing those who helped to take you where you are today.
You have missed an important candidate in your “roundup” of potential presidential elects. Have you heard of Frank Moore as candidate for president in 2008?
I suggest you visit his site and add a few of those liberal dollars and words to his campaign. I have supported you in the past – even when you were a long shot. At this point, do you think it might be time to use some of your wealth and fame to notice and send yet another letter DIRECTLY your constituency about this outstanding man?
Here is an excellent source of information about Mr. Moore’s candidacy. You might look closely at his ideas about health care, since that has been your most recent film focus.

You have a huge mailing list and you have a great deal of celebrity that has been supported by men like Candidate Moore. Would you PLEASE use your white male temporarily-able-bodied privilege to at least NOTE candidate Moore in your notes to your supporters?
A few bucks wouldn’t hurt the campaign either.

This is a beautiful letter. Hopefully, Michael Moore will see that he should throw some support to the “other” Moore!

we are on the e-salon now. it’s just my e-mail community, existing only in e-mails. before the internet, i was on a b.b.s….genie ran by g.e….causing trouble! i got into relationship with other trouble makers. when the internet came along, i started emailing the trouble makers, forwarding whatever they sent me to the others. over the years, more people kept joining…i finally realized we were a community of artists, writers, other misfits. so i dubbed it the e-salon!
we are night people around here. but this is late/early even for us. for the holidays we’ve been experimenting with long naps.

Talking to future healers
& teachers
& maybe future
muckrakers & troublemakers
Well,
Not really future
Because hopefully
You are doing IT
RIGHT NOW!
Hopefully
I’m not talking to the future guards
Of the corporate normalcy
Armed with can nots,
Limiting futures from birth,
Enforcing coloring only within the lines,
Enforcing doing everything
THE RIGHT WAY
THE NORMAL WAY
In Freedom,
Frank Moore
