Naomi Wolf's video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XgkeTanCGI has been discussed in many threads. But She is saying that the time to act is NOW.
I've tried to think up as many mainstream media outlets I could that would air this type of story. Here's a list with contact information. I hope everyone that reads this will take the time to send a message.
This is what I sent:
Millions of us are getting our news from alternative sources. We are sick and tired of watching the Bushes control our future. The time to act is NOW. Here is a video that we are watching that will give you some perspective on what is really going on. Naomi Wolf: "Give Me Liberty"

If the letter is to an American Organization I add this from Naomi Wolf, Guardian UK, April 24, 2007.
"The John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007 gave the president new powers over the national guard. This means that in a national emergency - which the president now has enhanced powers to declare - he can send Michigan's militia to enforce a state of emergency that he has declared in Oregon, over the objections of the state's governor and its citizens.
Critics see this as a clear violation of the Posse Comitatus Act - which was meant to restrain the federal government from using the military for domestic law enforcement. The Democratic senator Patrick Leahy says the bill encourages a president to declare federal martial law. It also violates the very reason the founders set up our system of government as they did: having seen citizens bullied by a monarch's soldiers, the founders were terrified of exactly this kind of concentration of militias' power over American people in the hands of an oppressive executive or faction."
