DEAR MR. PRESIDENT: DO YOU “GIVE A DIME” ABOUT PD

ATTN: National Campaign alert: IF you’ve not sent in your RED LETTER for the I “GIVE A DIME” campaign to the White House: Please go to @EndingPD.org and scroll down to E-mail a formatted letter to The President to end PD. We are asking for more funding for research, extended Medicare telemedicine coverage and to ban known neurotoxins from our food supply. Just like the MARCH OF DIMES, this grassroots approach is culminating with a virtual RAIN of LETTERS on the WHITE HOUSE to gain attention to our cause. We know PD is the fastest growing brain disease worldwide, has doubled in last 25 years and is projected to double again by 2040 - if we don’t derail it. Let’s jump on this professionally organized (free & easy) campaign ASAP: Deadline is Tuesday. Just click, sign & send @EndingPD.org

Maybe from Europe we have a diferent perspective, it seems you have changed from a white house that was taking on big pharma and was reducing drug prices to a white house that has largly been financed by big pharma. From what i can see so far looking in from the outside, there needs to be huge pressure put on the drug companies and research centers, how we do it is up to people cleverer than me. It is so frustrating.
