Coffee Party USA Board of Directors converse on PDR
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Today we will discuss the upcoming election. The anger, animosity, lack of cordiality, lack of civility, lying, misogyny and just outright rude behavior are the main characteristics of this year’s election. What can be done about this? How can we engage the general population to ensure that people rise above to noise to ensure that they are voting in their own interest.
Today I am honored to have three guests. They are all Coffee Party USA members. Coffee Party USA is a transpartisan organizations whose tenets include getting money out of politics, Wall Street reform, and tax reform. The organization realized that only through dialogue these vital tenets that are needed to maintain our democracy can be realized.
I am honored to have Debilyn Molineaux, President of Coffee Party USA and managing partner of Living Room Conversations. Tim Danahey, a director at Coffee Party USA and radio show host of the Tim Danahey show. Bobby Rodrigo, a director of Coffee Party USA and operations director at the Tax Revolution institute.
But before we get started. Last week was fund drive week and I want to thank a few kind warriors who contributed to keeping Politics Done Right on air. We cannot bring truth absent your support.
