   Tim Howard to All   
   The most important under-reported story

   We heard and read a lot of analysis about November's election--what it   
   means for America and what Americans are thinking, etc.  There were many   
   stories and angles covered.  But the biggest story not reported, and one   
   of the biggest period, is the growing movement against corporate   
   personhood and for a constitutional amendment ending this legal fiction.   
     Over 150 cities and counties around the nation called for a   
   constitutional amendment to say corporations are not people.  The people   
   of Montana also voted yes on a state initiative.  The Vermont   
   legislature overwhelmingly passed such a resolution last year.  The   
   media is almost all corporate owned, which is why none of them, even the   
   so-called liberal pundits reported the victories.  But if enough cities,   
   counties, and yes states, vote for an end to corporate personhood, they   
   will have to acknowledge the movement.  Move to Amend is leading this   
   fight.  Check out their story on the success of anti-corporate   
   personhood amendments, and of course, join the fight!
