Lakoff is the author of Don't think of an elephant. Know your values and frame the debate , which has become an important primer for Democrats trying to recapture the majority.

1. At last month's meeting they sold copies of "don't think of an
elephant!" by George Lakoff (the essential guide for progressives) and asked everyone read the book and be ready to discuss the ideas put forth about re-framing the discussion away from repug talking points back to liberal and democratic ideals. We have had our lunch handed to us for the last several election cycles and this is just one step in taking back the country. I am only about half way through be plan to be finished by meeting time.

2. I'm going to try and make this one
I have so much going on right now that it's hard to say if I'll be there for sure or not. I do want to see that film though.
