After getting a list of places to drink (and eat) in Florida from our DBO road trippers, we are headed down to Miami tomorrow for a Re-energize America town hall meeting on Monday at the University of Miami with former Governor and Senator Bob Graham and Miami Mayor Manny Diaz.
Two days later on Wednesday at 7 pm we will be in Orlando with Rev. Joel Hunter and Navy Vice Admiral Dennis McGinn.
Re-energize town halls bring together a diverse coalition of groups and individuals to discuss the twin threats of global warming and oil dependence accross the country. We've been to Des Moines, Omaha, and now we're hitting Florida (cue Howard Dean scream).
We hope to see you there!
