Tentatively, I've decided to write a book about us - the New Left. It will cover Guerrila Media artists (freeway bloggers, yes men, talk radio call-ins), interesting Kossacks and anti-establishment leaders that are innovating the resurgence of progressive America.
Tentative title idea:
Guerrilla Media, Kossacks and the New Left
How They Are Spanking the Elephant
I'm looking for candidate Kossacks to be profiled. An unfortunate result of the incredible growth of DailyKos is that, so far, it has been difficult to meet others in the community and know each other as flesh and blood. Oh, I know... if you live in NY or LA or Chicago, you might've found a time to meet up with your compatriots... or perhaps you learned of Kos from a friend you met at a Howard Dean meet-up... but for the most part, we really don't know a lot about each other.
I want to change that in a small way. I'm looking to profile 20-30 people... And I need your help determining who that's going to be. I'm accepting nominations.

Please don't be afraid to self-nominate. I want to profile people that exemplify the highest ideals of our community. I'm shooting for an eclectic mix... Do you spend a Saturday every month dressed as a clown at the children's hospital? Have you ever sat in a tree for a week? Do you work on Wall Street? What is your story?
Update [2005-10-5 1:46:13 by Mike Stark]: OK, this is getting plenty of responses and suggestions... but I need more than a name. Why do you want to see someone nominated? Please - don't be shy about nominating yourselves - it's the only way this can work... if you are shy about it, then email me - please.
and in order to keep this around for a day or so, can I get some recommending love?
