Re: Wait, there Is NO meeting on Thursday at 10am in Chappaqua despite the SEVEN email in my inbox about a \"Meeting on Thursday at 10am in Chappaqua\"?!?! I'm Confused. Why would a subject header about Elizabeth Warren imply there is another meeting?

I simple don't understand why this is so difficult. Because as annoying as you experience this subject header and previous note, I experience all seven. The majority of email sent within this organization has subject headers that in no way describe the subject. Yes, it stemmed from a mtg last week. But come on.
Even if it's a quirk specific to me and my various peculiarities, why isn't that alone enough to make a difference? If you pointed out an attribute or habit that annoyed you, as you do, I'd take it seriously.
I'm not living like this for the next two years.

Has Mindy given any intel on what EW wants/needs/hopes for? Or could Mandy provide some intel? It would just be such a big deal for this meeting to go well and have EW walk out feeling positive and on board.
>> And then there's the press question--not sure how high the chance of a leak is, but it would be good to have a joint plan with Mindy in the event it gets out to shape coverage. Or to proactively leak if that's what EW wants. Not a bad thing to put out there that they had a constructive mtg.

On the Warren meeting: should there be a short, small call to discuss what her goals for that meeting should be--what input she wants on policy, what she should ask for, what we think Warren is going to challenger her on, etc? Seems like that could strengthen her briefing.

>>>> 1. A unified message: Brynne and Nick were probably too polite to raise it last week but it has been a total zoo in the office since November 4th (not that it wasnt a zoo before). Like all of you, the questions we get asked 20 times a day is a. where is she and what is she doing? and b. what are John and CDM doing?
>>>> Our answer is as honest as possible. We are giving her the time and space to think through the things she needs to think through. We acknowledge that there is policy process continuing and that is fairly well known. And if people have 2016 ideas, we are happy to have them. On John and CDM, we say you have been her closest advisors for a hundred years and that hasnt changed. Since we have never discussed this as a group or agreed on what to say, sharing with everyone.
>>>> 2. Progressive friends:
>>>> - Elizabeth Warren: We confirmed this meeting last week. It is set for December 4th. We were having problems with them because this was supposed to take place in June. They do not want intermediaries discussing the relationship or the potential policy differences as they feel that is happening too much. They want to have a direct conversation about economic policy.
>>>> - Bill de Blasio: I stay in touch with him and his team a lot. He has recently asked to have increased direct access to her so he can tell his progressive partners what she thinks about issues important to them. He also thinks he can be most helpful to her if he has that kind of relationship. He wants to be seen as the loudest progressive voice for her and in order to do that he needs access. In the next 6 months, someone else will have to inherit this relationship because it will not be tenable for HRC.
>>>> 3. Schedule issues 2015:
>>>> - We ended up locking in ALL her remaining paid speaking offers a few weeks ago. She reviewed them all with you at meeting so you know everything.
>>>> - Listening Tour: I know you discussed. Just a note that she only loved it in hindsight. Also flagging that we have some repair work to do in some early states like NH and Iowa based on activity of the past year.
>>>> - Morocco: No matter what happens, she will be in Morocco hosting CGI on May 5-7, 2015. Her presence was a condition for the Moroccans to proceed so there is no going back on this. Important that you know background.
>>>> 4. Constituency Groups:
>>>> - Emilys List: Their 30th year gala is March 3rd, 2015. They have been lobbying for her attendance for over a year. Need to keep in mind for whatever other March activities we discuss. We have other EL issues we should discuss in next call/meeting.
>>>> - Executive Action: We have now heard from 1 friend in community saying specifically "we planning on getting more aggressive in our stance with Hillary (showing up at events and in press statements). if possible she should support executive order before the President". Need to assume starting TOMORROW, our friends will show back up at her open press events.
>>>> - LGBT and faith community: We have friends in both groups that want to start now or at least be part of steering committees on behalf of HRC and are in a holding pattern.
