This is the first day of the 2014 Colorado Caucus.

If you want to make a difference, start connecting with your neighbors now. Our system of government the powers of the President are very limited. It really doesn't make much difference who is elected President.

What will kill us is if our neighborhoods and the powerful grassroots system for helping the common person get elected to public office dies. Colorado is one of the few states where it still survives.

The system could become one of our top exports if we are good stewards of it here. In the next couple of days, we'll post here a plan for revitalizing your neighborhood, and it will be discussed on a local radio show next week. Stay tuned.

One person can make a big, big difference. In your neighborhood, let it be you!
