Hello DU.. missed you guys and all the in sights, out sights and everything in between.
Thought I would bring a little update from the outside participants, who are not particularly internet activists.
There were some interesting conversations out there. But the biggest point I kept hearing, and may the most unsettling one is the "wanting" the President to act more unilaterally.
I was sort of stumped by that, because part of me wants that also. Just slap it down Mr. President and do it.
I was hearing quite a bit of discontent with the President's outreach to all parties, and listening to all parties.
But I have to be honest, that type of push and want of the President to be more "dictatorial" as it were,(no one suggested he be a dictator, but when you pulled apart the conversations, that is exactly what they were wanting) I found disconcerting.
Sometimes I think people should be careful of what they wish for. Because we might get it.. Not with this administration, but maybe the next.
It was interesting to say the least!
