Gonna Fly Now - Philly4Dean
Drive for Democracy: Finale in Philly. Attention Dean supporters in Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey: Zephyr Teachout, photographer Ryan Davis and volunteer David Welch have been traveling across the country since late October on the Drive for Democracy, and they have chosen Philadelphia — the cradle of liberty, the city where Thomas Paine published his Common Sense pamphlet in 1776 — as their final stop this Sunday, December 14th.
Let's greet them with another Philly tradition: at 3:00PM we'll make a victorious run up the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps in a tribute to "Rocky" that would make Stallone proud. (We know the team is tired after their long trip, so we're going to let them skip the run through the Italian Market in South Philly and cut right to the steps. Boxing gloves are optional.)
We'll then head over to 30th Street Station for a little visibility and a bite to eat. If the weather isn't cooperating (or if you're not up for the run up the steps), head straight to 30th Street to meet up with us at 3:30PM. Wear your pins, hats and other Dean paraphernalia and let's show everyone that Philly loves Howard Dean!
We know Dean supporters in the Philadelphia area have been following this trip here on the blog, and now's your chance to be part of it. Please join us in welcoming Zephyr and her team to Philadelphia as they wrap up this amazing trip. Bring your stories, your questions and your enthusiasm. Get event info and sign up at Get Local. See you there!
