Denver Post: "Shut-up-Colorado effort."

From the Denver Post:

"John Wren of Save the Caucus! said... this is a shut-up-Colorado effort.” http://www.denverpost.com/2016/04/21/backers-say-colorado-primary-push-is-about-voters-being-heard/ #COPolitics #COleg #COCaucus

Are Unaffiliated voters transpoliticals? Are they are more objective? No!

We can register as a Republican or as a Democrat  if we want to make a real difference. (May be more major parties in the future, not the real issue right now.)

What does it really mean when someone says they are unaffiliated or a political independent?

 Excellent talk by THE expert on this question, head of Government department at Harvard. Very much worth watching and sharing with others online:

Caucuses aren't for ciphers by Sue O'Brien

My friend Sue O'Brien wrote this when our wonderful Colorado Caucus, our neighborhood system for nominating candidates to the primary ballot, was in danger of being killed by Amendment 29. Partly because of Sue's and The Denver Post's strong support of the Colorado Caucus, the misguided Amendment 29 was defeated.

Sue's wonderful column is still very much worth reading as a reminder of why the caucus-assembly system is worth preserving, warts and all. Please share it with your friends.

Thanks Villager Newspaper!

Thanks to Bob and Gerri Sweeney and everyone at the Villager Newspaper for this article this week that is a direct communication to the most affluent area in metro-Denver.

The Villager will be one of our primary ways Save the Caucus will attract the $1 million in contributions that will be required to defeat any ballot initiative to kill the Colorado Caucus via the slow death we know from previous experiment takes place with a Presidential Primary.

If you are a Villager reader, please, help your neighbors understand why a Presidential Primary is so harmful to Colorado grassroots. Encourage them to just say NO when they are asked to sign a petition that will put anything of the ballot in November changing Colorado election laws.

Many work hard to preserve the rain forests, tidal marshes, and open space because they are so vital to our environment. The grassroots are just as important to our political environment.

See the wonderful editorial a few posts above by Sue O'Brien, Denver Post Editorial Page Editor when the 2002 Save the Caucus found Amendment 29. Share it online, print it out, a little effort now could prevent an expensive campaign later. Help your friends understand the value of the grassroots and our Colorado Caucus.

For more watch for our media release that will be posted here the Thursday before June 11, and pencil in that June 11th date for a luncheon that will be announced with the release, we hope to have it sponsored by our friends at the Villager, the power of the Villager is absolutely essential for any winning political effort. Thanks again, Villager!
