Did John Kerry open a dissertation topic with his hypothesis about the “crooked lying group.” What is the membership this crooked lying group? Is this really the most crooked lying group ever?
Maybe not. But, I think it is a least a good enough topic for a national teach-in.
The teach-in is a great grass-roots organizational tool. While targeted at the already committed is serves the critical role of testing and buttressing opinion with facts and analysis.
The teach-in format can often leverage local resources in the form of university professors, local journalists as well as local political action communities.
Teach-ins are more of a longer-range campaign strategy, which impacts the electorate through a multi-stage information diffusion process. Now is the time to start a program of teach-ins which would serve, at minimum, to prepare campaign volunteers for canvassing the swing States during the summer.
So how about it. A national teach-in on “The crooked lying group.”
Questions:
Could this be funded by 527 money?
Should this be keep totally seperate from Kerry campaign to protect independent funding?
Which organization should be involved?
