Please join me in a conversation with Joe Trippi about his book, "The Revolution Will not be Televised." We will stream it live at Of, By, and For, this Friday the 24th at 2:00pm Pacific time.

As you might know, Trippi built the Dean for America campaign and started rewriting the rules for American politics using the Internet. I found Joe's book enjoyable and filled with many good and important ideas on how to begin revitalizing our democracy.

Those of you who know me understand I have always had an active interest in politics and in 1990 along with John Perry Barlow founded EFF to help begin to understand the intersection between the Bill of Rights and cyberspace.

Over the last couple of years, I thought it vitally important to once again venture into the political realm. We must begin to revitalize our democracy and restore our republic. I think the Net has matured to the point it could play a big role in helping do just that, but I also think we are deficient in the ideas concerning politics in the 21st century. I want to help start a discussion.

So, if you're Democrat, Republican, Independent, Libertarian, Green, or none of the above come join us at Of, By, and For this Friday to begin a discussion on the politics of the future.
