Grassroots Politics in the Neighborhood

Seventeen neighbors came to our precinct caucus this evening. What a great way to meet and discuss what the issues are and what we as voting citizens can do about it! First we read a summary of the party platform. I was surprised by some of the stands, but does everyone agree 100%? Not likely in America! The most valuable time was listening to what others thought about the issues and clarity from others point of view. We disagreed without being too disagreeable. Two of those attending were elected to attend the county convention and another to attend the state convention. Those would be interesting gatherings to see.
