The Build-A-Meme Project has been a bit dormant, especially through the ramp up to the Democratic primaries and caucuses.  The dormancy has been positive; in that period of time, many of us have unified under specific objectives towards turning our country around in the right direction.  In the last month there has been a steady build-up of new energy and new initiatives, begging for a revival of this project.  It's time dust off the Project and to share one such powerful initiative with you.

I want to let you folks know that there's a movement afoot to try and build on our new unity, to help us stay together and work towards taking our country back regardless of the nominee.  It will be an umbrella organization, one that welcomes people of all campaigns, political parties and paths to build a community of like-minded progressive folks, those of us who believe in building a greater democracy than we've had in the recent past.  I'll be sending out information about the first Meetup event, expected in mid-March. 

In the mean time, I encourage you to continue to gather at Dean or other campaign Meetups, to continue to help Governor Dean's or your candidate's campaign and to discuss the kinds of objectives and outcomes you'd like the Democratic nominee to tackle and/or any umbrella "unity" group to tackle.  Be sure to spread the word around, ask others to watch for and join this

There are some heavy-hitters on board from across multiple campaigns and other groups, working together right now to launch this effort; I sincerely hope we'll be able to continue our work together and expand our reach, strengthen our impact for positive change.  We have the power to take our country back!
