Middletown: George Lakoff's 'Framing the Issues' workshop

Event Description :

George Lakoff and his "Framing the Issues" Part II.

A cognitive scientist's prescription for progressives: Say what you believe and say it well, without hesitation and with moral fervor.

Logic and rationale are insufficient; the brain doesn't work that way. The Republicans know how; Democrats need to learn and apply.

Refreshments served.

3. Thanks... I see its a Wednesday and not a Tuesday like...

originally thought. We're tied up in Riverdale til 7:30 on every weeknight except Tuesdays in the month of July ( a kid's play rehearsal; they won't let him skip, and it's too complicated getting someone else to bring him and pick him up).

But thanks and thanks for the link. I ran across a copy of Lakoff's book ... at the play rehearsal, if you can believe it... last week and began to see what all the talk was about.

He seems to be barking up the right tree.

You might post the meeting on the New York forum to get the attention of locals.
