If Conyers' district does support impeachment, we need to prove to him that taking time out of his busy schedule to do the right thing is the right thing to do and even if he fails, his constituents won't choose to quit supporting because he started something that was "doomed to fail." 

We’ve got the momentum.  We just have to think creatively and not resort to name calling and ad hominem attacks on John Conyers in the event that he is not satisfying to people in the movement to impeach. Ad hominem attacks and insults are for Republicans who cannot control themselves when so-called moral values are threatened. They are for people who cannot see that insults and attacks are coming from an emotional level.

John Conyers knows when people insult him that they are appealing to him from an emotional level and not a pragmatic or practical level. The movement must be pragmatic if we are to gain more influence than we already have.
