One way to connect with presidential candidates now



I have it on good authority that most campaigns are now working on their disability platform – what they're going to say and do about how to help Americans with with disabilities to achieve the American dream. A quick way to have a direct impact on these platforms is to tweet candidates of your choice with a link to a successful initiative or program that you know about. It could be in the area of employment, healthcare, education, housing, transportation, exercise and nutrition, prison reform, police training, assistive technology, internships or anything else you know about. It doesn't matter what the topic is. The important thing is to contact campaigns and educate them about what is working. And, if they get elected, there is a high likelihood we will see this great idea promoted by the new president. Just think, if you sent your favorite candidate(s) a link a day to a great idea, they would have 15 great ideas to put in their platform and share with us BEFORE the Iowa caucuses on February 1.

To save you time, here are the Twitter account names for current candidates:

Bush. @JebBush
Carson. @RealBenCarson
Christie.  @ChrisChristie
Clinton.  @HillaryClinton
Cruz.  @TedCruz
Fiorina.  @CarlyFiorina
Huckabee.  @GovMikeHuckabee
Kasich.  @JohnKasich
O'Malley @MartinOMalley
Paul.  @RandPaul
Rubio.  @marcorubio
Sanders.  @BernieSanders
Santorum. @RickSantorum
Trump.  @realDonaldTrump

So let's get tweeting, shall we?

Thank you.
