JIM:  Nothing earth shattering.  Bylaw modifications of minor 
consequence and updates of platform planks.  Recommendations of names 
for inclusion on primary presidential candidates.  Jill Stein 
(consensus) and Kent Mesplay (by only 2 votes;  they had a debate and he 
had poor showing.  People voted for that, because they felt there should 
be 2 names on the ballot.)


       Confirmed Jared Laiety(sp) as liason to the Secretary of State.


       This was a meeting in LA.  Marnie Glickman is the "Managing 
Director of the CA Green Party".  A few locals have disassociated with 
the CA state party over this.


       Next Plenary in ~6 months someplace in N. CA.  We can have a 
plenary here and try to reach out to other locals.


PROPOSED:  People in this group form a committee to brainstorm how to 
deal with this:  Merriam will call a County Council Meeting.


       Proposed fiscal policy for the Green Party:  The finance and 
coordinating committees never looked at it.  Mike Feinstein wrote it and 
brought it directly to the General Assembly without going through the 
appropriate committees.


       Sunday morning:  2 items:  AB 1148 clean money campaign.  + an 
anti-death penalty initiative.

       Fri., Jan. 20 = 2 year anniversary of the Citizens United 
decision.  St. James Park is across the street from the Courthouse 
wherein the original "corporate personhood" decision was made in the 1880s.


       Proposed:  Santa Clara Greens endorse this event.  Passed by 
consensus with one stand aside.


        John is still concerned about the specific language.


       Q:  Could Laura Wells be invited to speak?



> *  January Movie Night
>        5 min, Merriam Kathaleen


       Dr. Strangelove.


       John agreed to get the announcement on the Peace Center calendar 
AND send an announcement to Spencer for the web site.


       Proposed:  Green Party combines with Occupy San Jose to 
co-sponsor movies starting in February.


       Latin Movie group wants to switch, so the Greens have the first 
Friday and the Latin group does the second.  Tian is one of the regulars 
and cannot come first Friday.

       State Green party has endorsed it.  Requires people who pay for 
an ad must put their names on it.


       We should see if we can have a table at this event.


       Santa Clara Greens also endorse the act and the event.  Approved.
