Sunday: Some thoughts on the Power Shift conference in DC

Posted on March 1, 2009 by kwilder

So, I am observing from afar the Power Shift conference in DC with hopefulness and some healthy skepticism. I am thankful that 12,ooo or so young people cared enough about something political and environmental to show up.

But, none stop to say what the numbers were. As a first-time candidate, and as an […]
