The following is an unpaid, unpolitical, announcement.
How is the next commander-in-chief going to fight the number one killer of Americans under 85?
Dear Friends,
I am no longer content to let the cancer question go unanswered. It is possible to stop this disease, but we are not making it a priority or applying the resources needed to stop cancer from killing 560,000 people each year.
That is why the Lance Armstrong Foundation is hosting the first-ever LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum to make sure our next President knows that Americans across the country expect cancer to be a national priority.
Sign the LIVESTRONG Army petition today to show all presidential candidates that they must make the fight against cancer a priority of their administration.
The LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum offers a unique opportunity to make cancer part of the national dialogue by asking the presidential candidates to go on the record with their plans to fight the disease. The Forum will be co-hosted by MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and me on August 27 and 28, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and will be a historic event that puts cancer on the same national stage as other tough questions our country faces.
The LIVESTRONG Army petition will make it clear that our next President must be prepared to answer the cancer question.
As of this week, Democratic candidates Senator Hillary Clinton, Senator John Edwards and Governor Bill Richardson have confirmed their participation for the Democratic LIVESTRONG Presidential Candidate Forum on August 27. Republican candidates Senator Sam Brownback, Governor Mike Huckabee and Governor Tommy Thompson have confirmed their participation in the Republican LIVESTRONG Presidential Candidate Forum on August 28. The event is open to the public, and tickets are free.
The goal is to get rid of this disease forever. The LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum give all Americans an opportunity to ask the candidates “What's your plan? And where does cancer fit into your policies?”
Join me and thousands of other Americans in demanding answers to the cancer question by signing the LIVESTRONG Army petition today.
LIVESTRONG,
Lance Armstrong, LIVESTRONG Army
