January 6, 2012 Club Discussion Topic: "How Do Democrats Define Themselves?"
Two areas that stand out from the discussion we had about defining ourselves as democrats are: 1. We have always been and continue to be supportive of Education. We see the education of children as both a critical part of preserving our democracy as well as extending the free enterprise system. 2. We believe in the dignity of work and that the worker deserves to be treated fairly. In fact the worker and unions are the heart of our middle class society.January 27, 2012 Club Discussion Topic: Continuation of "How Do Democrats Define Themselves?" with discussion of the Idaho Democratic Party State Platform (Click here to see the platform)
