14. Well, I'm A Boomer & Don't attend School AND It So Happens
that MY red county is the county that's represented by Katherine (Cruella) Harris.

Difficult! But I have joined up with many places, one of my favorite is Florida For Peach out of New College in Sarasota. I really admire what they try to do, but they are students and many don't have a lot of money. They have organized some good stuff and I've attended all of it.

It's the people of my generation who are sitting on their rears pretty much. I am going to a meeting this week-end, don't know what it's called yet but was told about it from someone I was volunteering with to get paper ballots here in our county. They meet the 3rd Saturday of each month so I hope it's got some activism.

I recently went to one that is connected with Dennis Kucinich, but there didn't seem to be much activism going on. Oh, they were very committed, but basically they seemed to be just promoting more meetings to go to or speeches to attend. Then when I found out that they had been meeting for almost 2 years and there were only about 40 people there.... well you know!
