Hold a convention at non-union facilities?

Wow.

That's powerful.

What sorts of demonstrations, other mass actions and movements in defense of working people, our rights and living standards from the attacks of Wall Street and big business is the national Democratic Party spending time and money to organize in North Carolina?

I'd like to know specific details.

Thanks.
