As someone who can't attend the Sunday meetings and
hasn't read all the current discourse about this
endorsement, I don't quite know what intervention I
would make at the meeting.

I was going to merely associate myself with Ricky's
very considered missive, (which I do)  when I saw this
suggestion of a compromise, which actually is
acquiesence .. .

I like very much to refer to bell hooks' very
important quote.
<<If your coalition doesn't to include members that
some are uncomfortable with, it isn't broad enough.>>

A corollary is that  individual members should be able
to continue to work with the group for a broader goal
even if there might be an endorsement they strongly
disagree with. . .

I hope ther's time to discuss groups and individuals
signing the
Pledge of Action to Stop A Stolen Election  as
presented on the www.nov3.us  website
