This is the first of a two part pod special recorded live on site at the Colorado Convention Center during the Association of State Democratic Chairs. The Future of the Party Forum featured candidates running to be the next DNC Chair. The following candidates attended the forum: Ray Buckley, Chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party Keith Ellison, Congressman from Minnesota’s 5th District Jamie Harrison, Chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party Also, Howard Dean, Former DNC Chair and Former Governor of Vermont led with a special video message whose audio we've included. There is some typing/coughing that you can overhear at times during the recording, which we blame on the reporters sitting near us, we hope you'll forgive the noise that was happening in the room. Follow us on Twitter or Facebook! We'll have the 2nd half of this forum out soon.
