I am sure it will next time. I bought some Dole (Non organic) lettuce and spinach. Yesterday, I used a good chunk of it in a smoothie and have been sick ever since. About 24 hours or so. I wasn't paying attention when I bought it! ttrimmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15679629205051688522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4767796780256225655.post-90480639334604985792013-11-16T16:05:20.342-08:002013-11-16T16:05:20.342-08:001) Direct mail is critical.

Also, use a better segmented voter file.<br />2) You can't gloss over the exemptions. The 522 commercials and web site just say "the exemptions are common sense" without telling people WHY they are common sense. It takes 5 seconds to say "Federal Supremacy Clause" and "State Single Issue Clause" - voters aren't idiots. If you tell them the law is as strong as it can possibly be within the confines of federal law, they'll understand.<br />3) Embrace the "labels are a skull and crossbones" message. GMOs are a product of chemical companies. They make them to sell more chemicals and to control the food supply. Chemicals cause health problems. Why label Roundup but not Roundup Ready? The plants are drinking the herbicide, and then we eat it. These products NEED a warning label.Judson Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11099734184798696923noreply@blogger.com
