Attention all Oregon PCP's (Precinct Committee People). The Mult Dems are looking to fill positions and restructure their committees, and we need your help filling these roles. The current committees include:
1. Budget and finance
2. Campaign and government liason
3. Platform, resolutions and legislation
4. Community action
5. Rules
6. Credentials
PCP's engage with legislators to help direct policy decisions. They follow legislation, report on it, create committees, brain storm and create real change.
If you want to become a Democratic PCP then let me know, I can get you started in the right direction.

Obama update! All but one of the Photos below are by Peter C. Little, Portland, Oregon Photographer (Shannon provided the other one)Here are first person, backstage photos by Peter C. Little of Portland, Oregon. These are supplied by The Wordsmith Collection Photos from Barack Obama's visit to Portland http://www.slide.com/r/h9lbfhd14D-4jP9_bjunEJDd0D-teSxJ
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this or not. I just found this site and am very excited that it really exists! My wife and I are both in our 20's, democrats, and an active LDS church memeber. I would really like to orgainze an event for LDS members who support Obama, but I am not sure how to go about doing it. If anyone out there would like to help me out, let me know. I have a house and a big backyard we could use. I am very into politics and would like to be more active but just not sure how. Anyone interested in getting together? I live in SE Portland.

From The Oregonian 08.22.08:
A Portland venture capitalist who specializes in green energy investments has been given a coveted primetime speaking slot at next week's Democratic National Convention.

Rosa Colquitt is opening her home to join with others in celebrating Senator Barack Obama's Presidential Nomination Acceptance Speech on Thursday evening, August 28th, 6:30 p.m.
Delight us with your favorite side dish and/or dessert. Rosa will provide the main dish and beverages.
Live on a big screen TV, be "in the moment" at the Democratic National Convention and hear the message that will CHANGE A NATION. Join us to share the historic moment when Presidential Candidate Barack Obama moves one step closer to uniting America.
Please RSVP to confirm our count. You'll be sure to get a front row "luxury viewing box seat" to Invesco Field, without standing in line and avoiding the congestion and traffic. :)
Thanks in advance for sharing this historic evening with Friends of Obama. We Are the Winds of Change and the Movement that Drives this Campaign!
Over that 100+ degree weekend when Barack appeared in Portland by the river and got the first huge crowd that was to presage his Berlin appearance, I was there.
I canvassed in Portland that weekend, having flown in on Thursday evening. We went out on Friday and Saturday.
The first day I went out with a woman from the SF Bay Area and we went to a pretty long list of houses in a neighborhood across the river from the Obama HQ. We talked to some folks, left literature at other places where no one was home.
The big surprise was being told that Barack was actually coming to Portland on Sunday. I had no idea. We volunteers were told the office would be closed on Sunday and everyone was invited to come to the riverfront to see him.
Congressional Senate Candidate, Jeff Merkley is a special guest and will talk one-on-one with picnickers as a key stop in the Tualatin/Tigard community part of his 100 Towns Tour for Change across Oregon. Tigard Representative, Larry Galizio is the key note speaker. Local candidates Jessica Adamson (Sherwood/ Wilsonville) and Jeff Barker (Aloha) will also join in the afternoon festivities.
The event following on the heels of the the Annual Tualatin Crawfish Festival a week prior serves up a fun relaxing afternoon with Obama and Democrat supporters from all over Washington County. Children will enjoy the new playground area with decorative gym climbs, and a scenic viewing area overlooking the beautiful Tualatin River. There will be face painting for kids, Obama Bubbles, and a friendly Pull 4 Obama TugO-War game for children and adults. Bring your Frisbees, play catch and throw the softball around the horn, serve it up on the tennis court, shoot three pointers on the basketball court, or bump it up with volleyball.
The main thrust of this event is to acquire new voter registrations in Washington County with a breakthrough concept modeled after drive through coffee stands... a Drive-Thu Voter Registration that can complete the entire sign up process in minutes with the assistance of capable volunteer registrars. The TigardObamanators, is a collective group of experienced and passionate volunteers with a "progressive" spin to traditional campaigning engaging their community to "connect" with neighbors and increase voter support and new registrations - particularly Latino voters in Washington County. This event paves the way to bolster Barack Obama's swelling support across Oregon and the rest of America in addition to key at stake Democratic positions nationwide.
Drive-Thru Voter Registration will be held from 12pm - 4pm. Picnic-goers can relax in the comfort and beauty of the park, enjoy a tasty smattering of potluck delights while having a close-up and personal conversation with local candidates. Here is what is on tap for the afternoon festivities:
2PM "One-on-One" with Jeff Merkley, US Senate Candidate
4:30PM Larry Galizio, House Rep-Tigard Key note speaker, also Jessica Adamson-Sherwood/Wilsonville and Jeff Barker-Aloha.
"A Progressive Approach to Grassroots Change", Gary Lee Jelinek. TigardObamanators guest speakers: Tommy Thorne, Rosa Colquitt, Joe Santana, Julie Toth and Karl Thatcher.
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT 08 LAWN SIGNS will be available at the TigardObamanators Booth. Supporters are encouraged to pick up their lawn signs, part of "Blanket Oregon with Obama" campaign. Obama T-shirts and bumper stickers will also be available for sale.The community is invited to join in this special up close and personal event to meet the candidates and have fun with friends and family. Bring the whole family down for a nice relaxing summer picnic and remember to bring your camera to take pictures shaking hands with a cardboard real life replica of Presidential Candidate Barack Obama. This will be the closest you'll ever get to fist-bump with the the Democratic Presidential candidate!
