Grassroots Voters Who Challenged Rahm's "Legal" Residency WI
2011-01-24 22:30:00 Todays ruling against Rahm Emanuel's being removed from the ballot was a victory for the grassroots voters who continued to lift of the validity of the legal challenges against the majority of the major media who continued to do stories on everything about Rahm EXCEPT the possible impact that The Appellate Court could have, and did in fact rule today.Today, The Illinois Appellate Court made the right "legal" ruling versus what Rahm Emanuel wanted in a "political" ruling in that Rahm Emanuel may have qualified to vote absentee in a Chicago election but did NOT meet the qualifications to be a "candidate" in Chicago in proving that one actually maintained "residency" for one year. I am happy that The Illinois...

Wallace "Gator" Bradley, Mark Allen, Take Grassroots Recommendati
2010-09-17 21:11:00 Yesterday, I spoke with Rev. Al Sharpton on his nationally syndicated radio talk show where the subject matter was Rev. Sharpton asking grassroots people across the country what should be on the Congressional Black Caucus' (CBC) national agenda planning during their annual CBC Weekend. I discussed with Rev. Sharpton and the national radio audience the fact that veteran grassroots activist Wallace "Gator" Bradley, and advisory Board member of The Black Leadership Development Institute, BLDI would be attending the CBC Weekend and would be bringing a proposal from national grassroots activists that the CBC establish a formal advisory committee of national grassroots activists and community organization leaders with the CBC.Grassroots organizations across the country are always called upon to help educate...

Jesse L. Jackson, Sr and members of Rainbow/PUSH that I would return and help re-connect grassroots leaders, organizations and issues back to the organization where those for whatever felt disconnected. This upcoming Mayoral election in 2011 could help re-ignite a massive grassroots movement that we have not seen in the past 21 years, but it won't happen if we do not talk "to" each other like we used to, so I am appealing you to attend the invitation of Rev.

?Amorphous? Aspect of Tea Parties:Evidence of Their Grassroots Nature
2009-04-19 10:08:00 Perhaps the most accurate description of the tea parties in one of Andrew Sullivan’s tirades against this grassroots phenomenon was his use of the adjective “amorphous” to slur the rallies. To be sure, he used that word to modify our “rage.” (Wonder if, after February 24, 2004, he ever found “rage” to be a defining ...

Elites Vs. Grassroots At CPAC
2009-03-03 13:02:00 Over at Pajamas Media, this morning, I examine the apparent rift between Republican grassroots and the Republican elite at CPAC. One such respondent placed his objections within the framework of the Republican Party being the middle-class party and therefore not needing “gimmicks” to prove their middle-class bona fides. The problem, of course, is that once those middle-class symbols are removed, or limited in their impact and exposure, the Republican Party leadership tends to forget the values of the middle class that they claim to represent. The results are predictable: In election seasons, such omissions lead to the near suicidal nomination of people like John McCain for president. McCain tried to sell us on the idea that he was a “maverick” when it came to bucking the party establishment. All too often, however, he was a very public rebel against true conservative values. Back in the day, the description we used for such people was “Rockefeller Republicans.” These ...

The Path to Victory: Grassroots Republicanism
2008-12-13 16:44:00 Let’s start, with a premise: Every Republican president candidate since 1964 has had their level of success or failure, respectively, tied directly to the degree of voter perception that they have or have not turned their back on conservatism. Consider the history of the thing… and it all flows one way: Nixon billed himself a conservative, and successfully, even though in most respects he was a California Moderate, and came down more or less where John McCain was in the most recent election; to the left of George W Bush. Yet, Nixon had an electoral landslide in both elections. (Admittedly, the Democrats he ran against were a laughable lot, which didn’t hurt him.) Bush 41 figured if he bent over forward enough, the left would like him.  Remember he was doing what the Democrats asked him to do, re; the ’no new taxes’ pledge? How did they respond? By beating him over the head with the fact that he did what they asked. The voters did the same, seeing clea...

5 tips for organizing grassroots film screenings
2008-04-15 17:50:00 At a recent Cinema Politica screening at Concordia University, Montreal, filmmaker and professor Liz Miller caught up with Svetla Turnin and yours truly to get our two cents on organizing grassroots political film screenings. She interviewed us at her very packed screening of her new documentary, The Water Front. For those unfamiliar with the project, Cinema Politica was started five years ago at Concordia and has grown into an alternative network for distributing and exhibiting independent cinema (with a focus on Canadian titles and documentaries). There are currently about 30 locals (chapters) in operation across Canaada, mostly at college and university campuses. Cinema Politica has also sprung up in Germany, France, and Romania. The first Cinema Politica "festival" will take place this May in Transylvania. überculture, the non-profit responsible for this here blog, is the organization behind the project. We started Cinema Politica to support independent political cinema as well...

Grassroots Artists Create Ron Paul As A 3D Animation
2008-03-19 07:30:00 A group of grassroots artists have gotten together and created a 60-second TV promo for Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul. The spot--which looks like any scene from a high-quality, modern video game--utilizes portions of Ron Paul's past speeches, combined with high end computer animation and moving graphics to create scenes where a 3-D Ron Paul emerges from water, is surrounded by doves, is standing amongst money flying up into the air, and even appearing next to the founding fathers of the Constitution. It's impressive!!

Anonymous Wins Victory For Grassroots Organizations Everywhere
2008-03-14 11:57:00 Remember the anti-Church of Scientology group Anonymous? Apparently they're still around, still going strong, and still making the Church so nervous that they've filed lawsuits against the members of the group in a Florida court. According to the St. Petersburg Times article by Peter Farley, the Scientologist hierarchy filed for an "injunction for protection against repeat violence." This legal filing was done in anticipation of an upcoming Anonymous protest against the Church of Scientology in Clearwater. It would have essentially barred protesters from coming within 500 feet of the building.This is completely outrageous and exactly what the protesters are complaining about in the first place. Here is an effort by the Church to suppress the ability of dissenters to legally and peacefully protest on public sidewalks and public property surrounding the Church. Instead, they are trying to legally force the protesters to stand almost 1/10 of a mile away from the building, where the p...
Grassroots Philanthropy
2008-03-06 16:01:00 I would like to bring your attention to a thought-provoking book I just finished reading, Grassroots Philanthropy: Field Notes of a Maverick Grantmaker which was written by Bill Somerville the President of Philanthropic Ventures Foundation, with Fred Setterberg.I have to say, this was probably one of the most inspiring books I have ever read on the subject of Philanthropy. Bill Somerville, is an extremely compassionate individual who cares deeply for the world of giving.Bill has worked in the non-profit world for over 48 years, and in his book he shares some of his vast experience with us.

If this is grassroots politics, it?s time to xeriscape
2008-02-06 07:25:00 This morning I said I wasn’t going to caucus. I said that I couldn’t manage it with two kids, and still couldn’t decide whether Obama or Clinton was the better choice. This evening, with much help from one of our commenters (Djerred) and his wife, who took one of my kids off my hands for the evening even as they were caucusing too, I was able to caucus myself. I realized on the way home that, if I didn’t at least try, if I didn’t at least give the Obama and Clinton supporters a chance to plead their case, I’d kick myself tomorrow. Caucusing tonight was the worst voting experience I’ve ever had, and I may never caucus again because of it. I think that the single biggest problem is that the Broomfield County Democrats were totally unprepared for the number of caucus-goers they had. They had prepared for 800-1000 attendees and had at least 2000 attendees. Because of this, their choice of a local high school cafeteria was woefully insuffici...

CCTV: Steve Dickinson On China's Grassroots Democracy
2007-12-24 01:37:00 Got the following email yesterday from a client: When I checked into my old, Soviet-style Moscow hotel the other night, I was tired from a day of Aeroflot and decided to surf the TV for something to numb my brain. The only English-language channel on the hotel's TV was CCTV9 from China. The first image that flashed on the screen was Dickinson on a talk show discussing grassroots democracy in China! It was a bizarre Russian travel moment! I then did an internet search and found this video of CLB co-blogger, Steve Dickinson on CCTV, described by CCTV as follows: Guests: Wang Xuewen, Former Deputy President, International Business Daily Steven M. Dickinson, Harris & Moure After the success of village elections in China's rural area, the talk about grassroots democracy in China's cities is also attracting a lot of attention. During the show, Steve talks about elections in rural Shandong province and how interest in democracy is greater in China's rural areas than in its cities...

Reid pulls FISA bill from Congress, backs down from Dodd and the grassroots
2007-12-18 03:10:00 The headline says it all…threatened with a filibuster and after eight hours of angry, eloquent debate on the vileness of supporting warrantless wiretapping and amnesty for lawbreaking telecom companies, Harry Reid has pulled the FISA reauthorization from the calendar for this Congressional session. Make no mistake–this bill will be back next year. Protection for AT&T and Verizon is too high a priority for Bush, Mike McConnell, and the other enablers like Harry Reid. But the battlefield will be very different next time around. Next time the momentum will be on the side of Chris Dodd, Russ Feingold, the ten Democratic Senators who voted against cloture, the many committed bloggers and activists who rallied the forces, and the thousands of committed Americans who wrote, sent e-mails, signed petitions, and made phone calls to stop this travesty of justice from becoming law. Plus, Clinton, Obama, and Biden–all of whom pledged to support Dodd–will have seen how...
