Laying it all out for universal health care, stopping the funding of the war, and fair trade.

Dennis deferred to Elizabeth to answer a question form the audience about monetary policy. Both hung around for a few minutes before dashing off to catch a plane.


A member of one of the local tribes--didn't get his name or his tribe--presents a blanket made by his mother for Dennis. (Memo to self--quit being so damn stubborn about getting a hearing aid.)


Modelling the blanket.


He was predictably asked why he didn't quit the Democratic Party--he said he wanted to move it in a more populist direction, and that someone needed to stand up to continued financing of the war. He is putting together articles of impeachment, and said that he was very impressed with our state impeachment activists--low-key and focussed on the administration's attacks on our Constitution.
