Members and friends of the Malibu Democratic Club met on the evening of Sept. 11 at Webster School to honor the memories of that tragic day and to host a forum for college and school board candidates. All candidates, including those of several political backgrounds, appeared and made statements, answered questions and met with the audience. It was a very open and successful meeting.
As individuals and citizens, our participation and involvement in gatherings such as this meeting enrich our democratic ideals of freedom and guarantee our nation’s stature and survival no matter the challenges. This may sound naive but, in truth, we can change history and, as Americans, we must never forget that because we already have for over 200 years!
Ralph H. Erickson, President
Malibu Democratic Club
