Do you ever feel like we are lurching from election to election? The 2yr 
election cycle, while a vital metronome to our political activities, may 
be impeding our success and growth as a political party (by keeping our 
time focus on the short-term. Now is the time to start discussing longer 
range goals, defining them, refining them, and planning steps to achieve 
them.

Lets start a discussion about where we want to see the IAGP in 5yrs, and 
how we want to get there. How many county chapters do we want? How many 
registered greens should we aim to recruit? How many candidates should 
we run, and in what races, and where? What should our outreach 
activities be focused on? What else needs to be mentioned?

These are only a few of the questions we can contemplate, and then take 
action on.

Lets start the discussion on our roadmap for the future. This is our 
party - lets chart its course!

As a favor, please keep all replies to the iowa-dx list so that all can 
see the ideas and give their input.

In solidarity,

Daryl Northrop
Co-Chair, IAGP
