[GPSCC-chat] North Bay Green Party Candidate Jena

[perrysandy at aol.com]

I suggest rescheduling Jena for May 22. I don't think the lateness in the campaign will necessarily be a problem. Another option would be for her to speak at De Anza on April 28 from 11 - 1 as part of our Global Climate Convergence. We have also invited Luis Rodriguez and Laura Wells, have not heard back from them yet.

       For our next meeting April 24, we currently have Steve Raney, 
Principal at Cities21 in Palo Alto (350.org volunteer), scheduled to 
speak on  "Strategies to Defeat Exxon/Koch: Politics of Federal Climate 
Legislation", 7 - 7:30 PM.


       I see the following options:


             1.  Have Jena speak 7:30 - 8 PM, and compress our regular 
meeting to 90 minutes so we finish by 9:30.  I think this is the best 
option.  (Sandy agreed to prepare the agenda for next time, and he would 
have to support this;  I doubt if that would be a problem.)


             2.  Pick another date for a special event to have her 
speak.  If you want this, and you want to do it at the San José Peace & 
Justice Center, pick any time that's free on 
"http://sanjosepeace.org/calendar.php", and I'll request that -- 
assuming my calendar is also open.  (I may be the only Green with a key, 
and picking a time I cannot be there would make everything harder.)  If 
someone else has energy to try to organize this, then that would make 
this preferable.  I can print fliers if someone else prepares such.


             3.  Ask Steve to come May 22 and have Jena come April 24, 7 
- 7:30 PM.  I don't like this, because we've already been advertising 
Steve's talk for a couple of weeks now.


             4.  Ask Jena to come May 22.  I don't like this, because 
it's rather late in the season, with election day on June 3.


             5.  Tell Jena we can't do anything.


       For any option other than "5", it would help to discuss it with 
Shelby Minister to see if she could help get fliers posted on the SJSU 
campus.


       What do you think?


       Best Wishes,
       Spencer
