Bird-dogging is a vital tool in today's democracy, especially in the heated electoral environment of 2008. The very nature of the campaign trail provides access to the candidates themselves in ways that allow us to express our outlook to them and to the wider public.
Bird-dogging is key tactic in getting those that wish to represent us on record about issues that concern us: peace and justice! It is also a chance to educate the audience about vital issues that concern them as well.

Effective bird-dogging provokes conversation and understanding on controversial topics, and it also exposes a candidate's true feelings on an issue.
There are many opportunities to ask tough questions in the 2008 elections. Remember: the media likes to speak to folks who have asked the candidate a question. Remember to stay on message and connect that message to everyday life in your community: the human and economic costs to your community from the war!
