RE: [MAPC-coord] First paragraph of CC mission statement
September 11 email body
By using the phrase "sets the politics" we are telegraphing an identity to
the community that is probably less than optimum for a broad based
coalition. This is kind of a late in the game suggestion, but I don't think
we lose anything by discarding the somewhat lefty-cliched "sets the
politics." I appreciate that it was the soicalist community that launched
this coalition in the days following 9/11, but let's not lose sight yet of
our desire for a broad appeal.
