I have been unable to unsubscribe from Fred Griesbach's money whine newletter. The only options are: unsubscribe from all AARP e-mails or manage the types of e-mail you receive. I don't want to unscribe to all AARP emails just the annoying ones.

The manage option only brings me to a login page which then brings me to the main page. I'm not given any opportunity to opt out his emails. Can someone fix the unsubscribe option so we at least have a real choice?

I consider this as SPAM: Fred Griesbach's email: "Keep Social Security safe."

I just received Fred Griesbach's email from AARP requesting that I send a message to Obama.  The subject of the email was, "Keep Social Security safe."

I did not authorize AARP to send these types of emails to me and, therefore, I consider this SPAM.

I cannot find a way to eleminate all socitation emails from AARP without unsbuscribing from all of AARP's emails,  Note:  I did not check any box that allows AARP to lobby me, solicit me, or request that I take an action.  Does anyone know how I can stop this?.  This is not what I signed up for?

If I cannot find a way to stop this type of email, I will unsubscribe from all AARP emails.  I don't want to do this, but dammit, I will---As you can see I am little more than just slightly annoyed!!

AARP supported the Democrats and Obama in hopes of getting more money for seniors, regardless of the cost.

Now your President want to cut my benefits so he can spend more money on other things, NOT WANTED BY THE US PUBLIC!!!!!

You wanted change, and now you have it.  WRONG CHOICE!

Before I sign your letter asking the candidates what their position is on Social Security and Medicare is, I want to know where you as an organization stand? What are your views?

Because from what I have learned about your postion on Health Care Reform, they do not reflect my views. You have made a deal with the devil, all because you want to do sell more insurance.

 You have sold us out in the past. Why should I believe you have our interests at heart when it comes to Social Security and Medicare?  I bet I get no answer to this question.
