5. it's too bad that David Cobb is speaking for Move to Amend at the same time...

... that Bernie is speaking on Sunday right across the river then.

http://www.afd-pdx.org/alliance-for-democracy-sponsored-events.html

I think I and many of Bernie's followers would like to attend both of these events. Still would like to think that perhaps afterword we could get some folk like Thom Hartmann and Carl Wolfson might find a way to put together a rally after both events where both groups of people could join to rally about them then and keep the party going that night. I think Hartmann and Wolfson both care about Portland, Bernie, and the move to amend movement heavily. Maybe we could talk them in to it!

Edit:
Oh wow! Originally it was later in the evening. I'd sent them a note to move the time, and looking at the web link here now, it looks like they have! It's now at 2 PM!!! So you can do both!
