WHO provide Conyers & Co with news from DU?
Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 11:30 AM by myschkin

Do we have some kind of correspondent who send SERIOUS news to people like Conyers, Arnebeck, but also Dean, Kerry...?

There has to be a perfect and fast information flow.

1. put the info on Demopedia
We can use Demopedia to collate the evidence we have that way we just have to send out links to relevant Demopedia pages which we keep updated as things develop - seems a lot better way of organizing things and making them clear for us and anyone else.

is not the same. A correspondent select the best and most interesting ones and present them in an info-style...

Nobody of them has time to dive into the floods...

7. It was evident
in listening to the hearings that Conyers was well aware of DU!

4. I talk to them
but they are well aware of this place. Remember before the hearings, they called for emailed questions and DUers by the score answered the call?

They know all about us.

19. see above

No, it was about all democratic leaders ;-)

Sometimes I have the feeling that they don't k n o w all facts and they can't put together the whole puzzle.

And that's why they don't engage...

Or don't you think that there is a lack of information?

Anyway, i found the hearing great - it was just sensational!

I hope all the leaders get the chance to see the hearing... (on a tape)

There was this very young student, and there was also a kerry-like young guy - and I think Kerry must have been tears in his eyes when he saw this... (remembering his own vietnam protest action in early years)

18. Yes, but our Admin said we were viewed as "Riff Raff" before the
Convention. Did things change after the Front Page was modified? I'd like to think we've moved past the "Riff Raff" phase...but we are a pretty rowdy bunch...so who knows....

Do you know if our reputation here is better than we've been led to believe?

12. That's not practical for those who are understaffed.

DU is a firehose of information. These people likely spend most of their time cleaning their email box, forget actively searching.

15. yes

This is also my opinion: They have no time for researches in DU, and select the good stuff from the less good...
