The New Year with the Right Northwest Chicks!
- Jan 23, 2013 · 5:30 PM
Come join the Right Northwest Chicks' for their first meeting of the New Year. We have lots of work to do and lots more fun ahead. Our speaker this month will be Mike Stall. Mike is an expert in technology and will provide a way forward. It's time to address the issues of voter communication with 21st century ideas. This is a very important discussion that we need to have in order to achieve the results we want and need. Mike will be starting at 6:00p.m. sharp. The Right Northwest Chicks encourage you to get there early and be prepared.
Our meeting is at The Redmond Family Pancake House - 17621 Redmond Way Redmond, Washington 98052. We start check-in at 5:30p.m. and the meeting will begin at 6:00p.m. and will end by 8:00p.m. We'll have a brief meeting where we will be electing our officers for the next year. We will take the time to explain why we're here and then hear from our speaker. There will be plenty of time to talk and chat about politics.
The cost is $5.00 for members; $10.00 for non-members. Non-Members can RSVP via MeetUp/Paypal. Members please pay your $5 in person (cash or check); non-members can also pay in person $10 (cash or check). This will cover our meeting set-up costs.

I thought Mike was "right on" regarding the use of tecnology to get our message out. Now, our message has to be another discussion...
Think about Republicans message style as a small black & white tv while Democrats is an I-Pad with a touchable, movable screen that can adapt quickly.
Do we want to be forever stuffing envelopes with the cost of mailing plus calling and leaving messages on machines or would it be more effective to "BLAST" e-mails to our supporters and even more importantly to our social networks friends on Facebook and Twitter?
There's so much to think about and do to reach people with technology. BHO didn't win just because of Union support, his network is unbelievable and we need to build one, too.

It was a good meeting and an excellent talk to kick off the new year. I'm in total agreement with the speaker about the need to use modern technologies and social networks to reach an increasingly diverse electorate. And by the way, we need candidates who are not wedded to soundbites, understand the issues and make the effort to develop logical and compelling arguments for why our positions are better than those of the opposition ( including, but not limited to, Progressives and establishment Republican politicians), and can fire up crowds and make policy issues relevant and interesting to the average Joe.
