Seeds of Freedom Meeting Notes

Our January meeting was unscripted but very informative.

We are in the process of creating a meeting content chairman who will help increase the quality of our meetings. We imagine the chair will be responsible for finding or having people find speakers.

We had some really good information shared about politics on state and federal levels.

On a State level:
We have a race with two Representative to the House. Mike Turner (D) is the Chairman of the House Democratic Caucus.

We believe that Charles Williams a local conservative is running against him. We will keep you posted as we learn more about the candidates and the race.

We also have the Tennessee Gubernatorial Election on November 2, 2010. We will update the site with news on the candidates as we learn more.

On a Federal level:

If you are reading this blog, you probably know that Massachusetts has a special election for the seat which was previously occupied by Ted Kennedy. Scott Brown (R) is running against Martha Coakley (D). He is leading in most of the current polls. In Massachusetts, arguably our most liberal state; this should be an awakening. This will change the "filibuster proof" senate. This will also send a message to our current administration that we don't support socialist policies in America. (See post below). Here's a link to the Scott Brown website where you can pledge support: http://www.brownforussenate.com


With Bart Gordon throwing in the... Retiring, we now have to look for a way to replace Jim Cooper.

One of our members brought up a way we can help now. There is a huge need to have people be pole watchers. Here is a link to the site where we can learn how to help: http://www.nashville.gov/vote/poll_official.asp

Here are some of the other sites mentioned in the meeting:

As always, we are looking for content on this site. Send us your thoughts!

If you are new to the site: We are a non-partisan group of people interested in Fiscal Conservatism and Responsibility from ALL of our elected officials.
