Your chance to help form the Democratic Party's platform! Virtually!

Angry about FISA?  War profiteers?  Torture?  Are you worried about our economy?  Health care?  Education? Social Security?  Equal rights?  We only have a few days left to let Senator Barack Obama and the Democratic Party know what we want to include in our party platform.
 
Let's be a part of this important process.  Now is the time to say what you think!  I know that we are all busy but this is our chance to be heard from the comfort of our keyboards!
 
Your voice is important.  Let it be heard.  Please join our virtual platform meeting: http://platformmeeting.blogspot.com/

Hey everyone.

As we said over the weekend, in the true grassroots spirit of this campaign, Obama for America has asked for its supporters' help in drafting the Democratic Party Platform.  The Tampa Bay O-train, thanks to Terry Watson, has made this as inclusive as possible by creating a virtual platform planning meeting.  We have set up a blog on which you can discuss the issue important to you and offer input on how the Democratic Party should be shaped.

Your voice is important. Let it be heard:

When the blog was originally set up, new users had to register to post comments, which restricted access and was time-consuming.  That feature has been disabled and so now you can comment easily and quickly. Have at it! How do you want the Democratic Party to work for you?

Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Johnny

Thank you Megan for making input so easy for those unable to attend a meeting.  Kudos to your Tampa Bay O-train!
