A Moment of Transformation? March 12, 2008. New Democratic Network

On the Presidential campaign trail this year the NDN states they have repeatedly heard the call for change. Some have called for transformational change, others have even said that America is at a defining moment in its history. The NDN asks,

NDN: A 21st Century Progressive Advocacy and Political Organization

NDN is a progressive think tank and advocacy organization.

NDN’s work is organized around a powerful idea – that for progressives to succeed in the 21st century as they did in the 20th, they will have to do three things: offer a new governing agenda that speaks to the challenges of our day; master the new media and technology tools that are changing the way we all communicate and advocate; and understand and speak to the radically new demographic make-up of today’s America.
