(Community Matters) Kirk Rudy & I hosted the launch of the Austin Obama Leadership Council this afternoon at the Headliners. An intentionally small group for the launch, those attending today each agreed to raise at least $2,500 for the June 9 Obama ’08 fundraiser featuring campaign co-chair, David Axelrod.
Senator Watson popped in to meet & greet
National Finance Committe Member Alexa Lange (from Austin Kirk Rudy, John Gorman & Tommie Meredith are also on the committee. I’m on the National Leadership Council and Latino Leadership Team) is also involved in this launch. Initial members include: Ian Davis, Amy Everhart, Cis Meyers, David Kobierowski, Michael Feferman, Rachel Hull, Callie Langford, Matt Glazer, Dan Grant, Jason Heffron, Ben Bufkin, Tom Terkel, Janice Cartwright, Joseph Lapp, Justin Smith, Ramey Ko, Justin Day & Jason Thumlert.
