Well if you want to get things done...

Submitted by mole333 on 4 May 2008 - 6:58pm.

You gotta work with people who CAN get things done. I will say that past DDDB events had quite a mix of people: regular Dems, Progressive Dems, Greens, and even Ron Paul Republicans. Even libertarians and regular Brooklyn Republicans. A good slice of the political spectrum is against Ratner's taxpayer funded Boondoggle.

But if you want to get something done in Brooklyn, you don't go to Greens...you don't go to Republicans...you don't go to Libertarians. You go to Greens and WFP. That means the people who were highlighted at the rally.
