Our History-Do you have something to say?

Yesterday's board brunch produced a lot of discussion about the history of the Democratic party nationally and locally.  Hanna Fredeen said that there was a lot of misinformation about history when it came to Democrats currently being published and that she would like to do something about it.  This led to talk about the possibility of hosting some educational or discussion forums on the history of hot button issues such as Water and Education.  Kent Verbeck talked extensively both during the brunch, and, with me personally afterward, about some of the local democrats who have served in the past.  As a result, I'd like to make this space available to guest bloggers (with moderation and advance approval) who might like to share a biography or two about local democrats.  From time to time, I'll be reposting the text of History Link Essays relating to various Washington State Democrats starting with the trio of Bone, Scoop and Maggie.  Stay tuned.
