  “ It was well run and organized by Mike McGillivary. The group was very open in the discussions. Mike is a good leader of discussions, keeping the group on the topic of the night, upcoming elections. There are always new people who attend, while others miss the meetings. Many who attend are very active in other political locations and activities, so this makes for good meetings. ”

• “ Most of us are fit to follow, rather than to lead. Given a good lead to follow (i.e., a person or two with good ideas), most of us will prove useful to a purpose. But without a strong lead, the air is quickly filled with voices that are incapable of compelling productive action. ”
