Candidate Forums Hosted by GOAIM

A request from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers came into my inbox that I could simply not ignore. Here are the details:

Five presidential candidates confirmed they will take part in discussions of key domestic issues before more than 600 representatives of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) on August 27 and 28 at the Disney Yacht and Beach Club in Orlando, FL.
The schedule for the IAM?s Conversation with the Candidates is as follows:

Mon. Aug. 27, 3:30 pm New York Sen. Hillary Clinton
Mon. Aug. 27, 7:30 pm California Rep. Duncan Hunter and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee
Tue. Aug. 28, 7:30 pm Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards and Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich

The candidate conversations will be moderated by Erin Moriarty of CBS News.

The event will be streamed, live, from the www.GOIAM.org web site. Streaming provided by ustream.tv.

The number and frequency of these forums have increased to a level I simply can’t recall in modern history and there is no question that the dialog is healthy for our electoral process. For political junkies like me they are priceless. We should all thank GOAIM for taking spending the time and effort to provide us with this invaluable forum.
