LUNCH with LOUDEN

Jeanene Louden and co-host Debilyn Molineaux talk about current events and look for opportunities to bridge political divides, expose corruption and share information not covered in mainstream media.

Let's Party!!  As you know it is Election Night. CNN, Fox News and Main Stream Media Sources tell us that this is a very important Election.  The GOP is trying to take control of the Senate and win more of a majority in the House.  The Democrats are fighting to keep control of the Senate and gain more seats in the House.  Both Parties say if they achieve their goals things will be better for you and I.  Do you believe that? Where do you, the Voter, stand? Tonight. Broadcasting Live at Election Headquarters for the Libertarina Party in Atlanta, please join me Bobby Rodrigo, 8:30PM on Coffee Party USA Radio, and let's talk about what is importnat to you, what candidates you supported and why?  Long time Activist, Coffee Party Newsroom Editor and Radio Host, Bobby Rodrigo, launches a new show on Coffee Party USA Radio on Tuesday 8:30PM.  With a body of work that includes P.A.N.D.A., Free and Equal and the American Society of Law and Justice Coffee Party Radio brings a new voice to its radio shows.  As many of you know and others will hear for the first time, Bobby's focus on facts, accountability of our elected officials and the deception and duplicity of our Main Stream Media is paramount.  He advocates engagement, coalitions and continues to point out that the Constitution is the Rule of Law in our land and why.  His disdain for Money in Politics, the Political Party Machine and partisan blind allegiance is on full display as he advocates against the erosion of our Consitutional Protections in the name of corruption and tyranny. Offering a long list of guests from Political Organizations, Activism, Media and Artists Bobby invites you to join him every Tuesday at 8:30PM on Coffee Party USA Radio.

Press [1] for Democracy (P1FD) is a Coffee Party Radio show that discusses the political issues of the day in a civil, fact-based, and transpartisan manner.  Transpartisan is quite different from bi- or non-partisan in the we encourage callers to be passionate about their positions, but also that they listen and respond to those with differing points of view repsectfully and with a true desire to find common ground on which solutions can be built.  

Tonight on P1FD . . .

Coffee Party Movie Night was Saturday 10/25.  We asked people to watch the film, then join us for a conversation with the filmmakers Paul Blackthorne and Mister Basquali.

Their movie, "This American Journey" goes from New York City to Los Angeles.  Paul and Basquali talk with people all along the way and offer their perspectives on the state of their adopted country.  

It's a fun, talk-over-each-other 35 minutes that we didn't want to end!

AND TOMORROW NIGHT...join Bobby Rodrigo for election coverage...Coffee Party style.  Show starts at 8:30 p.m. ET for 90 minutes.

This show is a rerun of a Politics Done Right  I did at Pacifica Radio KPFT FM 90.1. I am currently interviewing a Houston activist today and am unable to do the show live.

Corporations want big government / Americans want government that works

It was just a matter of time. One has to wonder what took so long. There was a time when Republicans would clobber Democrats on social issues, fiscal issues, religious issues. They’ve done it even though America has never really been a centrist Right country.

The plutocracy for many years engineered that center Right myth. They did it by fusing a several  groups that were not natural allies. They created the Liberal that was anathema to God, guns, and gay hate. And with that they controlled us all using big government – not big government for Americans but big government for themselves.

Earlier this month Jeanene Louden and Debilyn Molineaux attended a three day conference in Washington DC entitled “Democracy for the Next Generation” sponsored by NCDD (the National Coalition for Dialogue and Deliberation).

The National Coalition for Dialogue and Deliberation (NCDD) is a network of more than 2,100 innovators who bring people together across divides to discuss, decide, and take action together effectively on today’s toughest issues.  NCDD serves as a gathering place, a resource center, a news source, and a facilitative leader for this vital community of practice.

We saw how ripe the country was and continues to be for the mission of Coffee Party USA.  As we progress on our mission to “Building, nurturing and connecting communities to reclaim our government for the people,” participating in events like NCDD conference and others helps in two ways.  First, we gathered with the larger body of people working toward similar goals and, second, represented Coffee Party in the community of connectors.

On today’s show, guest Sandy Heierbacher, Director at National Coalition for Dialogue and Deliberation, Jeanene and Debilyn will share their experience and how it will play out in the day to day “life” of Coffee Party USA and maybe you!

Ebola, Healthcare, and Privilege

October 10th, 2014

Thomas Eric Duncan died this week from Ebola. He is the first person treated in for Ebola in the US that died. He is also characteristically and otherwise different from all those that survived their own bout with Ebola.

Sadly both Thomas Eric Duncan's healthcare and death revealed much about our privileged healthcare system. Worst, it shows that American citizenship while not explicitly tiered is definitely implicitly tiered.

Let's discuss Ebola, healthcare, and privilege.

What are your thoughts? Let’s  talk. I will also be following our hash-tag #PoliticsDoneRight on Twitter.

Americans all across the country are now or are about to have the opportunity to vote. But will they?

Today we will be discussing voter participation in America with two experts in the field: Tomas Lopez, Brennan Center for Justice, and Rob Richie, Executive Director of FairVote.org Center for Voting and Democracy.

According to The Brennan Center for Justice: ince the 2010 election, new voting restrictions are slated to be in place in 22 states; in 15 states, 2014 will be the first major federal election with these new restrictions in place; the courts will play a crucial role in 2014, with ongoing suits challenging laws in seven states. Voting restrictions for the most part have to do with voter identification.

Laws to improve the election system and increase voting access passed in 16 states since 2012, and these laws will be in effect in 11 states this November. The most common improvements were online registration and other measures to modernize voter registration, and increased early voting.

According to FairVote: voter turnout in the US fluctuates in national elections, but has never risen to levels of most other well-established democracies. In countries with compulsory voting, turnout hovered near 90% in the 2000s. Other countries, experienced turnout rates near 80%. Overall, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries experience turnout rates of about 70%, while in the US, about 60% of the voting eligible population votes during presidential election years, and about 40% votes during midterm elections.

Ebola scare is just the tip of an iceberg

October 18th, 2014

The Ebola scare is just a tip of the iceberg. Today I will discuss my blog post of the week, “Disjointed private healthcare guarantees more Ebola“. This is much deeper than we believe.

What are your thoughts? Let’s  talk. I will also be following our hash-tag #PoliticsDoneRight on Twitter.
