Definitely more effective if you call and make constructive comments and suggestions. And, also calling the D.C. office is more effective than calling your local constituent office. Give your opinion, you are not asking where they stand---you are a thinker. The fact that you care enough to put in a personal telephone call shows that you are in the know. You get your point across rapidly. One other tip I would add--------particularly if you think your representative may not vote favor the way you would like is to express your opinion as 'concerns' e.g. I have not yet called the Virginia Senator's offices----I want to do a little research on their thinking on the insurance/Medicare/issues. So will checkout their public positions if they are posted on their web sites. Then knowing their general thinking------I can approach with 'concerns'. I like the 'direct' approach. That is why I have always done the telephone calls. E-mail takes a lot of time to construct and may get rejected by a staffer who doesn't think your e-mail matters. mj
