A Call and Plan for a Progressive Values Summit
    'At the core of every movement is a set of values that propels it forward.'

We are calling for progressives to hold a Progressive Values Summit to focus on articulating what are Progressive Values and how we can contrast them to the Failed Conservative Values.  For an overview, see the following article.

• Values Voter Summit: Whose Values will Prevail in 2008?
  This article on DailyKos gives an overview of the Conservative Value Voters Summit and explains how they have set it up. It calls for Progressives to create their own Progressive Values Summit to help progressives work out their values and directly confront conservative values.
