[GPSCC-chat] North Bay Green Party Candidate Jena

[WB4D23 at aol.com]

March 30, 2014
 
There were only seven people at our monthly GPSCC meeting last  Thursday.  
If we are going to be inviting a candidate to visit us, I would  hope we 
could figure some way to get a large audience and generate some  publicity 
about the event.  Warner

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
