So who is going to the DNC Convention in Philly

[LynneSin]

I know many of you are going to the rally outside of the convention for the Bernie supporters and others to be a part of the convention.

I would love to organize some sort of DU gathering but I would want it to be a positive experience where we are supporting the Democrats whether you are there for the Bernie march or supporting Hillary.

I will be busy all week as a convention volunteer but I would still like to find time to hang out with the DUers in Philly (I am a Convention Volunteer, which btw, is organized by the city of Philadelphia and not the DNC itself).

1. please just be safe and non violent

that is it, everyone be safe!

[Demsrule86]

2. I want no part of what will more than likely be a ruckus.

Bernie should concede.

[LynneSin]

12. I will be too busy to be a part of any ruckus

The job I was assigned for the DNC Convention will keep me busy for minimum of 7 hours a day.

[Demsrule86]

25. If you say so.

3. I live here. Signed up to volunteer, but had to bow out due to work commitments.

Dunno how available I will be that week.

[LynneSin]

11. Awwww

I took the week off of work. DNC Convention has been on my bucket list.

I got picked to be a Philly Ambassador so I will be busy with that. Can't wait to find out which state I'm assigned.

4. Hey LynneSin

Not going to the DNC, but will be at the Ciro Poppitti office and the Italian Festival tomorrow if you're around.

[LynneSin]

10. Crap - I would be but I'm going to be at Firefly

And I'm right in the heart of the Italian Festival. I have a Matt Meyer sign on my porch. I'm still not committed to a Mayor other than 'Anyone but Williams'.

How is Ciro looking for Lt. Governor. I know he'll have the vote of my neighborhood. (I live in Little Italy)

[jberryhill]

14. Ah, can't miss that

I have no idea how he's doing, but my son is working on his campaign, so we may be biased.

[Agnosticsherbet]

5. Can't afford the flight or the room and board.

Hope everyone there has fun.

6. My son and his friends were going to go...but I think they have seen things evolve, and decided

to rent a houseboat on Lake Powell for the week instead.

7. smart move, take alot if repellant tho

[CorkySt.Clair]

9. That's some good thinking whoever you support.

[Agschmid]

8. Thank you for volunteering!

I won't be there but I appreciate the invite!

13. I am running to be a national Clinton delegate

I will know if I make it on Saturday

[brooklynite]

16. What is a "national delegate"?

[Gothmog]

17. Sorry, that is convention terminology

I am already a Clinton delegate to the Texas state Democratic convention. At the convention we will elect Clinton and Sanders delegates to the national convention and the terminology being used is "national delegate." We are electing 149 Clinton delegate and 75 Sanders delegates to Philadelphia this weekend.

The process is very political.

[brooklynite]

18. Got it...best of luck.

Sorry to say, if you get elected, you'll be staying at the Marriott hotel out at the Airport.

[Gothmog]

24. I know

[LynneSin]

19. Good luck! Hope to see you there

15. My wife and I will be there as Host Committee supporters.

[LynneSin]

20. Host committee supporters? What's that?

I'm there as a volunteer for the Philly DNC organization.

[brooklynite]

21. Host Committee raises funds and organizes logistics for the event...

I think you're actually working for them:

[LynneSin]

22. Yep I am signed up as a volunteer and leader

And was picked as an Ambassador.

[brooklynite]

23. Try not to get paired up with Ohio...they're being placed out in Lansdale.

[LynneSin]

27. Well I'm sure they have some states in Delaware

Or at least Chester/Delaware County.

But I use to work in Lansdale so I know the area.

[brooklynite]

29. I have the Master List...

...they'e in CC, West Phila, the Airport, Lansdale and Valley Forge.

[Demsrule86]

26. Congratulations...have some fun.

[Vinca]

28. All I can muster is a trip to the ballot box.

My enthusiasm is currently at zero and threatening to go lower.
