CEP alert for Hillary supporters!

I got an email from Hillary with the following info:

In an election that has often seemed like it’s about anything but policy -- Donald Trump seems to prefer name-calling and empty slogans -- I’m proud that Hillary is a bona fide policy buff. Earlier this week, she even proudly declared the policies on our campaign's website to be “a little wonky,” and then she told us why that’s important to her:

“I actually sweat the specifics because they matter,” she said. “Whether one more kid gets health care may just be a detail in Washington -- but it’s all that matters to that family worrying about their child.”

Hillary thinks carefully about how best to solve the problems facing American families, and she’s not afraid to get in the weeds to figure out which policies will really make a difference.

{Name}, if you’re a policy nerd like Hillary, we’d love to invite you to a special new group: Wonks for Hillary. Add your name now to be one of the first to join, and we’ll keep you updated on key policy rollouts throughout the campaign -- and even invite you to join exclusive calls with policy advisors like me.

From health care expansion to investing in our infrastructure to gun violence prevention, Hillary has specific plans that dive deep into the root causes of these issues, and propose smart, targeted fixes that will implement changes people can really see and feel in their communities.

We’re running against a dangerous opponent whose policy ideas include legalizing torture and banning immigrants based on their religion. Hillary is going to keep fighting him the best way she knows how: by rolling out plans that will actually help Americans. When you join Wonks for Hillary, you’ll be able to talk articulately about those plans to anyone who’s interested -- and learn in-depth exactly how Hillary will help Americans as our next president.

Add your name to join Wonks for Hillary today:


Basically, she wants us. Right?? I can't link because it populates my info into the fields, but I'm sure many of you will also receive the email! If I find a generic link I'll add it.

So, I would be seriously interested in being involved with this on the issue of her College Compact.  But in the past when I've signed up for stuff with Hillary, it's quickly turned into your very typical 15 emails a week asking for money.  Not that she's any different than any other candidate in the regard.  I just don't have any interest in getting those kinds of emails.  So, for those of you who have signed up for this, what's on the other end?

Okay, so I entered my email address, and then very next page is a "donate here" page.  That's not necessarily unexpected I guess, but I honestly can't even tell whether I HAVE to donate to be a "wonk."

Huh, me too.

I clicked on the link in my email and it brought me to a page that was prepopulated with my email address and zip code. I hit OK and then I was brought to a donation page. IT never gave me a choice to sign up for the issues that i care about and there is no way to progress past the donation page without making a donation.

You don't have to go past that page, the first page is all you need to do.  I'm interested to see what comes of this besides the typical donation emails.

I got it too, signed up, and donated $5.
