The Netroots Nation 2011 conference is right around the corner. June 16-20 in Minn/St. Paul. Because it is right next door to Wisconsin, expect to hear a lot about what they are doing. Amy Goodman may be broadcasting live from the conference like she did last year. Keynote speakers include Al Frankin, Russ Feingold and Howard Dean. The excellent parallel sessions makes it hard to know which one to attend.
The political parties have not grappled with the real problems for decades. There are so many big problems now, and many are interdependent so at some time there will be a major shift. The number and talent of the dedicated people at the conference will be involved in shaping the future. As most of you know, the conference was started by dailykos.com and now is a stand alone effort.
Come and get your batteries charged!
I have a room with 2 queen sized beds at the closest major location to the conference, the Millennium Hotel. I would like to share the room.
I am a straight man, 68 years of age and a political activist. The room is for Wed through Saturday evening.
If someone has a car, I would like to see the sights on Wed and Sunday for part of the day.
