What Has 80-20 Done for Us?

Hi! Will you join 80-20 as a dues paying member, if you can afford
it please? Here is what 80-20 has done for YOU and OUR children.
Please read it. Give 80-20 a fair hearing!

Sincerely,
S. B. Woo
President, 80-20PAC, Inc.

80-20's RECORD OF SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITY
(For all details visit: http://www.80-20initiative.net/unity1.html )

A. Effective In Standing Up for Our Community:

1. 10/27/00: 80-20 single-handedly forced the infamous "Daisy TV Ad"
off the air. The ad fanned "yellow peril," and was aired by a
Republican group in the Mid-West region. Time required: 1 day
2. 2/22/02: Induced the second and serious apology from The Seattle
Times regarding Michelle Kwan. Timed required: 8 days
3. 4/17/02: Induced Abercrombie and Fitch to take its new line of 4 T-
shirts, that denigrated the APA community, off the market. Time
required: 3 hours
4. 12/16/02: Induced the Republican Senate Caucus to take a re-vote
on Sen. Lott's leadership position. Time required: 6 hours, although
80-20 probably only functioned as the "last straw" in this matter.

B. Effective in Empowering Our Community Politically

1. 12/27/00: Urged the Bush Administration to appoint an APA
cabinet member. 2 days later, Vice President Cheney approached
Norman Mineta.
2. 6/9/02: Urged the community to display flags on July 4th to help
erase the "foreigners" image. 80-20 spent big $$ to buy ads in
radio, and newspapers in big cities with large APA population to get
the message out. By now, our community's growing tendency to
display flags to identify with America is quite evident.

C. Effective in Protecting Our Community's Political Candidates & Scientists

1. 5/1/02: 80-20 publicized a warning to political candidates who
would mount racist attack on APA candidates, stating that such an
attack would bring 80-20 into the election campaign. Result: 100%
success in the general election of 2002.
2. 2/6/03: Announced a policy to protect APA scientists from trumped
up charges and abusive government investigative techniques that
fail to stand up in court. Such a result will cause 80-20 to join
the victim in suing the government for damages. No such cases have
popped up since.
3. 4/17/03: A policy to stop biased media reports relating to SARS/Spy
from spreading in the mainstream media. Result: too soon to
evaluate.

D. Fighting Harder, When the Pressure Is On -- The Coble Case

This is another area where 80-20 may be uniquely valuable to YOU.
80-20 doesn't just issue press releases to condemn this and
that, and end up meekly walking away when ignored or mocked
by the offending organizations or individuals. 80-20 increases the
pressure & fights on until the job is done. Thus far every case 80-20
has taken up has ended satisfactorily. For the ongoing Coble case, see
details via http://www.80-20initiative.net/coble1.html.

For decades, our community yearned to have an org. like the 80-20.
Now that the seed has been planted and a small tree has taken hold
bearing a few fruits, your money or time is the water to nurture it
into a big tree
