1. Thanks, I x-posted this

in DC.

[appalachiablue]

2. Super. Just saw your post. Did you get MD, VA yet? I'll do now if not. Just purchased

tickets, exciting. They will go very fast; many thanks to Thom Hartmann for the info. on his program today. (Haven't been to the NPC since a 2005 counter Inaug. ball).

4. I just posted in VA, MD, WV.

7. Good!

Used to live and work in DC; retired in MD now but have been to Press Club several times, and many who are in town SHOULD go.

20. Today, 1:00 pm ET, LIVE, Sen. Bernie Sanders speaking Event at press.org, website for

the National Press Club, Washington, DC.

3. Everybody should get to a National Press Club event at least once

And hearing Bernie Sanders speak there would be a real thrill.

I went to a black tie dinner there a couple of years ago when my son, an investigative journalist, received a Sigma Delta Chi award from SPJ (society of Professional Journalists). It was a great experience all the way around.

5. You must be so proud of your son, what an honor held at a great institution. Attended a counter

Inaug. event there in 2005 & went once as part of an AU journalism class years earlier. Very excited to see Sen. Sanders in March, just got tickets.

[Divernan]

13. Great that you're going - you must post all about it here.

[appalachiablue]

14. Will do, glad to report here on the Press Club event with Sen. Sanders!

6. I wonder

If he will announce his candiacy for the democratic nomination.

[appalachiablue]

8. Who knows, wouldn't that be wonderful. I have such respect for him, his dedication to the people

and to the welfare of this country. What a true American patriot Senator Sanders is, especially in these times.

[Hekate]

9. You mean that he will have changed his party registration? Because he can't run as a Dem...

...unless he is a Democrat.

Nice guy though. It's good that he caucuses with us.

[appalachiablue]

10. If I may, he's said often that he will only run as a Dem., not as an Independent.

Yes, it's very good that he caucuses with Dems. What integrity & character, a true man of the people. Rare these days.

11. Passed this on to my sis who lives in the D.C. area.

One of the few times I might envy her...

[appalachiablue]

12. That's great, hope she can attend, tickets going fast. Yes, DC has changed a lot since Reagan.

Great historic city, wonderful culture, but many lobbyists & defense contractors now. Better times ahead I hope.

15. Any word on whether CSPAN will cover it?

I'd love to see this.

[appalachiablue]

16. Good question, will try to contact NPC & CSPAN. I'd think CSPAN would tape & air it. They should.

[hedda_foil]

17. Thanks, appalachiablue. It would be great if they did.

[appalachiablue]

18. I sent an email to NPC about coverage tonite. When I hear anything I'll post it here for sure.

Will contact CSPAN if nec. If they can film Joe Scarborough at a bookstore event in DC last year they definitely should film Senator Sanders here in 2 weeks!

[appalachiablue]

19. Today, 1:00 pm ET, live, Mon., March 9, Sen. Bernie Sanders speaking event

at the National Press Club will be streamed live and shown at the NPC's website, press.org.

(I contacted NPC & CSPAN but didn't hear until this morning that NPC will tape/stream the event live today at 1:00 pm ET. CSPAN will not be covering the event).

[hedda_foil]

21. Thank you for keeping track of this, appalachiablue.

If you have time, this should be an OP now so other DUers can catch it.

[appalachiablue]

22. Sure, it's exciting! CSPAN IS carrying the speech LIVE now, it's 1:35 PM, ET. (NPC told me wrong

this AM). People anticipate whether he will comment on the 2016 Presidential Campaign.

23. PS My laptop croaked over the weekend or I would do more- sorry.
