like make sure everything is set for the Rules meeting, and that everything is above-board and all of that. And also trying to ensure that the Obama counterprotest is peaceful and polite.

+1 activism points for slinkerwink!

I'm asking others here to please recommend this diary for Obama supporters that live in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia area. This is so Obama supporters can pre-register for attending the Rules and Bylaws Committee on May 31st, which will decide the outcome of Florida and Michigan delegations.

There's going to be a mass protest by Clinton supporters outside the Marriot-Wardman hotel, which is in Adams Morgan. I'll also be organizing a counter-protest by Obama supporters, and I already have a few signed up to go with me for the protest. I can't stress enough how important this is going to be, and why this should be on the recommended list.
...
I think the voter registration drive is a great idea. I suggest that we all show up at the hotel, and distribute whatever voter registration packets we can give to passerbys to register them, tell the media that we're there to register voters to show support for the Democratic National Committee so we can expand the party for the 2008 general election and then we can do a canvass across town to register people. If anyone wants to remain behind at the hotel to counter-protest, it HAS to be a peaceful protest.

1. No shouting at Clinton supporters.

2. Do not engage them to argue.

3. Smile, register voters.

4. Bring signs talking about Democratic unity, and how important it is to beat John McCain. Write quotes from the DNC's book on McCain on his many flip-flops.

5. John McCain is the real enemy here.
