SENATOR GEORGE MCGOVERN WILL BE AT THE BOOKMARK ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24 AT 7 PM TO TALK ABOUT AND SIGN COPIES OF HIS BOOK “WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A DEMOCRAT”.

 

McGovernSenator George McGovern will be at The BookMark on Friday, February 24 at 7 pm to talk about and sign copies of his book "What It Means to Be a Democrat".   Forty years ago, Richard Nixon routed George McGovern in a presidential election that forever changed our view of American politics and cemented the powerful differences between the Republican and Democratic parties. Today, as the chasm between left and right has widened in Washington, McGovern passionately argues for a return to Democratic core values. In this new book, the former South Dakota senator laments that the GOP and increasingly centrist Democratic politicians have forgotten their commitment to compassionate policies that meet the needs of the many, not of the few.   As the political campaigns for President of the United States heat up, this book takes on even more importance both for Democrats and Republicans.

George McGovern, the Democratic Party's nominee for president in 1972, served in the House of Representatives from 1957 to 1961 and in the Senate for 18 years. He was president of the Middle East Council for 6 years and U.S. ambassador to the UN Agencies for Food and Agriculture. McGovern holds the Distinguished Flying Cross for his service as a bomber pilot in WW II and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for humanitarian activities.

Pick 3. Spend 50. Save your local economy.Think about which three independently owned stores you’d miss most if they were gone. Stop in, say hello, and pick a little something up. That’s how they stay around. If just half the employed U.S. population spent $50 each month in independently owned stores,their purchases would generate $42,629,700,000 in revenue.*

For every $100 spent in independently owned stores, $68 returns to the community throughtaxes, payroll, and other expenditures. In a national chain, only $43 stays here.

Spend it online and nothing comes home.The number of people it takes to start the trend...you.
