As the incumbent will not publicly debate our candidate with face to face dialogue with unfiltered questions from the public, we have scheduled a public access forum on PegTV21 in Rutland on Thursday, August 12 at 11 am. We are offering spots at the table to our Democratic opposition and the VDP. We want you to join us and ask the tough questions, no holding back. We believe that even though you may not agree with our candidate's position, you will respect his candor and willingness to openly discuss the issues.

AP, Rutland Herald and various other news agencies are aware of this forum; AP has RSVP'ed to join us. The question is will you or any of your spokespersons take this opportunity to explain their position about why they feel we are not true members of our Democratic party, why you won't acknowledge Dan Freiich's candidacy on your website or at VDP events, and why you don't support fair and open representative democracy?

Kevin Molduene
Campaign Manager
Dan Freilich for US Senate

Our open challenge to you...

It is abundantly obvious that there are several Daily Kos members who would like to challenge Dr Freilich's run for US Senate from Vermont. Some of our most ardent critics have been Kestrel9000 (ed) and odum from Green Mountain Daily. I have previously invited those two critics to join us for an interview on public access TV and i'm still waiting for a response. However in the meantime I would like to open the challenge up to the general kos community.

In his farewell address to the country President George Washington wrote the following about a "party based" system, like the one we have today.

It serves to distract the Public Councils, and enfeeble the Public Administration....agitates the Community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms; kindles the animosity of one....against another....it opens the door to foreign influence and corruption...thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.

[Diarist is the Campaign Manager for Freilich - MB]

saw this on our local channel thought it would be worth sharing. I also listened to the VPR 'debate' and thought Dr Freilich sounded very good. Look, I know there has been a lot of bashing because some witty blogger decided to try to smear the candidate. I think we should give Dr Freilich another look....
