Shortly after the debate started someone knocked on the door [View all]
A young man with a tag around his neck started talking about community organizing. I stopped him in mid sentence: we are watching the debate, I said. Yes, yes, he said, and then something about the AFL CIO. We are watching the debate, I repeated. Yes, we are collecting funds... Sorry, I said, I've already donated to candidates and closed the door.
If someone wants to send funding request door to door for, supposedly a progressive cause, why send them during a Democratic debate?
At least, I would consider the AFL CIO progressive..
