I was asked to post this by Janet Flint and am glad to do so. If you look over in the right sidebar you will find a new box
labeled: Activist Central. We are going to be putting up links to folks who determined to change the corrupt, spineless anything for
some greasy cash ‘Democrat’ Party into a progressive organization you and you children can use to build a better nation to live in.
Period.
No factionalism, just good old-fashioned grassroots work on the infrastructure of the party. I’ll be adding more links as we get going.
Feel free to suggest one to a group which wants to change how and what is done rather than the face on the packaging.
Presented by the Grassroots Leadership Summit
Are you a blue-county Democrat who’s interested in supporting
Democrats running for office in “red” areas?Maybe you’ve considered
volunteering, but weren’t sure how effective you’d be?
Presented by the Grassroots Leadership Summit
Join us on Saturday, May 17, for a few hours and learn what it’s all about.
Hear from Bay Area people who’ve volunteered in rural campaigns
and from rural people who welcome the support.
Katherine Forrest’s widely praised “Talking Politics” workshop
can help you become a better communicator.
You can also sharpen your skills in workshops on voter registration,
phone banking, and canvassing, led by experienced political activists.
Learn how to make your volunteer time count, as you help out fellow Dems
around California and in crucial swing states.
We can elect some great candidates this year!
