From 7-8:30 p.m. Thursday (Jan. 13), the Jefferson Parish Democratic Executive Committee will present a special edition of Jeff Talk devoted to answering this question:

Why I’m a Democrat!

James Carville – LSU fan, media pundit, political consultant and architect of Bill Clinton’s election as president – will headline a diverse cast of Democrats, from grassroots volunteers to Young Dems to party leaders to elected officials. One by one, they’ll give their heartfelt answers as to when, how and why they became Democrats. Folks we’ll hear from include Carville, state party Chair Katie Bernhardt, parish party Chair Trey Mustian, State Rep. Kyle Green Jr. and more.

We’ll also dig into what Democrats must do to win elections in Jeff Parish, across the state and across the country. Nothing less than the common good of all Americans and the future of our democracy are at stake.
