Today, the first large-scale progressive event since Barack Obama was elected President will occur in Washington, DC. Senior members of Obama's transition team, like Valerie Jarrett and Melody Barnes, will take the stage next to everyday people - single mothers, immigrants, those without healthcare. "Realizing the Promise: A Forum on Community, Faith and Democracy" will be the chance for REAL people to set the agenda in Washington.
