This is from the March 2, 2004 program.

Howard Dean On The Jay Leno Show!

This is from the September 30, 2003 program.

This was a classic appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Looks like we've got Hollywood on our side!

Jay put together some hilarious clips (3 MB) of Dean as a street musician and Dean as Pete Townsend that are quite historical. One of them features Rob Reiner as a passer by.

Jay sure did his homework for this interview. We get to learn about how Howard decided to become a Doctor and how he managed to balance being a Doctor with his duties as Lt. Governor before the Governor died and he became the "big guy." We also learn about his favorite $125 JC Penny suit that he still owns to this day.

PBS Democratic Presidential Candidate Debate - September 4, 2003

Good Morning Folks,

So I'll be blogging this in more detail later (note: I've since backed out of this task), but I really wanted to get it up for you this weekend so you could check it out before the work week starts. (Yes, I realize that many of you will have to wait 'till the work week starts so you can get your hands on a high speed connection...so this way the files will be ready for you too on Monday am.)

Here is the Democratic Candidate Presidential Debate that aired on PBS on September 4, 2003.

I've made the files available in two or three parts.

These files are all huge. The "2s" are about 100 MB each, and the "3s" are about 60 MB each. I'll have them split up by candidate eventually, but, like I said, I thought I'd give you a chance to spend the day with them if you are so inclined.

I'll be gone for the first part of today and then back this afternoon to finish my weekend rampage. (I'm actually getting caught up on my blogging todo list!)

Enjoy!

Howard Dean At SEIU 250's 2003 Leadership Conference In San Francisco

Here's Howard's speech from last weekend's SEIU 250 Leadership Conference in San Francisco on Saturday, September 6, 2003.

It was really an incredible event. The crowd was really into it and Howard gave a great informal speech.

I was lucky enough to run into him as I was coming down the escalators while he and his posse were on their way into the holding room. I called his name and waved -- I wasn't really expecting him to stop -- but he did stop and wait for me to come the rest of the way down so I could shake hands and say hi! What a sweetie!

(I resisted my hippy urge to give him a big old hug, although it is getting harder and harder to do that, because I really do feel like giving him a big old hug these days.)

Anyway, here's the speech. I've made it available in one large video file, two smaller video files, and in a single, and two smaller MP3s for those of you who might want to play the audio or use it on your radio show.

I'm also uploading the AIFF files of the audio for you DJs and professional folks to do with as you wish. (As of 11:15 am PST - these have about two hours to go until they are uploaded.)

Enjoy!

Dennis Kucinich On The Daily Show

This is from the August 21, 2003 program.

This is the mellowest I've ever seen Kucinich! He came across very well, I think.

Check it out and decide for yourself.

Howard Dean On The Environment: San Francisco, July 31, 2003


Howard Dean came to town last Thursday, and I was able to video two of his speaking events.

The first event in the afternoon was on the environment. Howard warned us that his speech might be a little stiff, and he wasn't kidding. But he did make some good points, including one about the potential of wind power. (Small - 3 MB)

One highlight took place when a cell phone rang and Dean realized it was his own. (Small - 2 MB)

I didn't get a chance to wait around to talk to Howard because I had a 1:45 appointment, but I wasn't worried about it, because I was going to see him speak again at a fundraiser at the San Francisco Medical Society that same evening (which I knew would be a smaller gathering and a better place to say hello).

I'll have the stuff from that up later today.

Here's the complete speech from noon on July 31, 2003, in one part and in three parts:

NOW Hosts Presidential Candidate Forum on Women's Rights
Press Release

Thursday 10 July 2003

"At this critical time in politics, voters need and want to know where the candidates stand on the issues women care about," said National Organization for Women (NOW) President Kim Gandy. "Because women's votes will make or break this election, our concerns and our rights need to be addressed." On Friday, July 11 the nation's largest group of feminist activists is hosting the first forum of 2004 presidential candidates to address the full spectrum of women's rights. The forum is part of the 2003 National NOW Conference, and will precede the Saturday kickoff of NOW's Drive for Equality, a 5-year campaign to register, educate and mobilize women to vote on issues that affect their lives and their families.

Participating in the NOW forum are Governor Howard Dean, Ambassador Carol Moseley-Braun, U.S. Representative Dennis Kucinich and Reverend Al Sharpton. Gandy will moderate the event with political comedian and activist Elayne Boosler. Unable to attend the forum due to scheduling conflicts, John Kerry will send a videotaped message and John Edwards will send a representative. Gandy, audience members and journalists-include legendary questioner of Presidents, Helen Thomas-will ask the candidates hard-hitting questions on a broad range of women's rights issues.
