Developing campaign strategy
Recruitment
Getting media coverage
Political analysis
When you complete the training you get a $150.00 stipend and to be part of a "Rapid Response Team", that is you get to be one of the major instigators of the actions roberth mentioned above. I found myself at a similar house party back in February. It was full of very angry people with their panties in varying states of wad, busily sharing and comparing posts they had all shared on facebook over the previous months on their phones. As I don't do facebook or have a news feed on my phone I was a little left out. As they filled up on gluten free vegetarian snacks, over priced beer, and cheap wine, things quieted down considerably. I was spared most of it by a lot of bourbon and a couple of children who asked me to help them build stuff with Legos.
