Charlie Brown will speak at the Vanguard’s Party July 30

On July 30, 2007 the People’s Vanguard of Davis will celebrate its first birthday from 7 to 10 PM at the Davis Odd Fellows Hall. There will be food, a no-host bar, and speeches from a broad array of local officeholders and politicians. Excess proceeds will go to the Yolo Crisis Nursery.
Congressional Candidate Charlie Brown will speak at the People’s Vanguard of Davis’ first birthday party. Brown, a retired Lt. Colonel in the Air Force, challenged sitting incumbent John Doolittle in 2006 in California’s Fourth Congressional District. Despite the district being among the most heavily Republican districts in the Brown was narrowly defeated by three points last November.

With Doolittle facing possible indictment for improprieties stemming from contributions from Jack Abramoff and also from his wife collecting campaign money for consulting services, Brown has already announced he will change one of the most corrupt politicians in the country.

Other Speakers include: Councilmember Lamar Heystek, Former Candidate for District Attorney Pat Lenzi, School Board President Jim Provenza, and County Supervisor Matt Rexroad.

The emcees will be: Former Davis Mayor Ken Wagstaff and the “General” Dick Livingston.

The Party will be held Monday, July 30, 2007 at the Davis Odd Fellows Hall located at 415 2nd Street in Davis from 7 until 10 pm. Admission is $20.

Please RSVP as soon as possible as seating is limited and we are expecting a capacity crowd for this event.

  1. Having Charlie Brown as the keynote speaker for the Vanguard’s 1st Anniversary is great. He is a good choice as his campaign in large part was supported by the net-roots community. They rallied around him and helped him raise money to get his message out. In 2006, his and other progressive candidacies were truly helped by bloggers and folks who use the internet daily. Good Choice DPD!

  5. Another thought: Retired Lt. Colonel Charlie Brown had the courage to challenge the corrupt John Doolittle in arguably the most Republican congressional district in California. At great personal expense he worked every day for nearly two years to bring a needed challenge to Doolittle who is one of the Iraq War’s greatest promoters and apologists. Since Charlie came close to being elected he is most likely running again in 2008 and we need to support him early to build on his hard fought challenge during the last election. Although this is not a campaign rally or event, it will be good to see Charlie again and hear about his experience as a candidate running with the strong support of the progressive internet community. I shall look forward to the event.

  9. DPD –
    Not sure if this is the place to address this, but as your anniversary is right around the corner I am wondering if you had any thoughts on what the two or three most important things that make this blog successful.

    Where do the comments rank as important to you and do you think the anonymous posting help or hurt the cause. What about pseudonyms? I’ve seen debate arguing both sides.

    I ask this here as I will not be able to attend the celebration.

  21. i will like to comment on the davis pokice officer. officer rod refreied is not a nice offocer due to the experience our family experience by not durning any crime. AFTER picking up police repoert to try to fiqure out why our family was being harrassed? none. yes color plays a major role in this community and to have walking officers will only make them play a more major role of minornity in this community. walking in the rain, in the hot summer, windy wheather. NO just that may have waken up on the otherside of the bed like mostly they all do, Other officer laughinghing in the dept because they have to walk ? really I personally don’t think this will solve the problem because this problem start within the dept not the community.

  29. Ms Anderson are you for real? This has to be a joke; someone is trying to shed some bad light on a person that may have had a run in with the Davis Police Department. The bad grammar and spelling seems contrived. If not, I do apologize. There are ways of doing spell-check if you need it.
