The For-Profit D.C. Firm Staging America’s ‘Grassroots’ Movements
- bediger4000 4y agoI've been told by Colorado politics people, of both parties, that grass roots organizations do not exist. Seasoned campaign workers don't believe they exist.
- h2odragon 4y agoSame, back to the mid 90s at least. I provided Internet services to several, actual grass roots groups: regular people who had desire to make noise about a problem they perceived. Politicians would keep saying "tell your backers we can help for only $50k" and things like that; when there were no "backers" there was just a few people spending their own money and time to try doing "activist" actions.
