Shouldn't you be on your way to Chicago for the AFL-CIO Convention

Or are you part of the 4 million members who will be leaving them?

If I go, it'll just be for a day, and just to say "hello." I've done a
lot of work over the years for the federation and some of its
affiliates, but never get involved in their internal politics.

But if you don't go, how will you pitch the idea of a "soldier's union"
to them?



It was a joke; I had hoped you would "get" it.

I "got" it. I was just using the example to probe as to why you weren't in
Chicago.


Besides, if there were such a move, it would be most appealing to the
Service Employees, and that group seems intent on marching out of the
federation for reasons I wouldn't discuss here.


I thought you said that you "never get involved in their internal
politics". So how do you know the reason why groups with 4 million members
are leaving the AFL-CIO?
