Progressive Political Blogging & E-Mailing

With working class roots in the Democratic Party going back over a century, I have been writing about political issues for over 30 years. Since 2001 I have written hundreds of articles online and e-mailed activists nationwide and now worldwide. Passages of my writings have been quoted online, as by BBC News (See “Comments From Left Field” quote), The Guardian (UK), and UPI. Click on a year for an index of my work:

 

2010	2009	2008	2007	2006
2005	2004	2003	2002	2001

 

The writings marked with the PDF icon are arguably my best work.

Other Online Archives of My Political Writing

 

In some of the indexes to my works elsewhere, as at DailyKos.com or OpEdNews.com, you will also find listings of comments I have made to postings by others.

 

For my earlier socio-political writings, not originally e-mailed or posted online, read my Letters to the Editor of the Los Angeles Times (some of which are now available in the Times archives online) as well as Progressive Thinking, my online archive of published and unpublished work through June 2006 (Unlike the indexes below, of postings in widely read sites or of mass e-mailings, Progressive Thinking includes some of my e-mails to individual, although anonymous progressive activists).

Articles Re-Posted on the World Wide Web

 

A number of my news and opinion articles etc. have been re-posted in their entirety in various sites online: sometimes with my knowledge and permission — as in LAProgressive.com or ExistentialistCowboy.com — other times without — as by the Pasadena Democrats, who found my reasoning interesting; the news archives of The Neil Rogers Show, in Miami, or of the Invisus security company, which found my article on identity theft newsworthy; or such blogs as Dprogram.net, whose readers called one of my OpEdNews articles “crap” (It’s a free country).

Filling in as News & Opinion Editor at OpEdNews.com

 

For about a month in 2005, I filled in as News & Opinion Editor for vacationing Rob Kall, Executive Editor, at OpEdNews.com — then with 300,000 unique visitors a month (now with over a million). I searched through “mainstream” and “progressive” sources online to find newsworthy and thought-provoking articles, for which I posted brief excerpts and links on the homepage of OpEdNews.com.

E-Mails to Activists Nationwide & Worldwide

 

Over the years, I have sent a great number of political e-mails to my (select, private) list of activists — including several members of the Democratic National Committee with whom I have exchanged correspondence — and others nationwide — including in such “swing states” as Nevada, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Florida. And many of my e-mails have been forwarded to other lists, nationwide and even worldwide, as by my friend in Geneva, former network TV correspondent Len Hart (“The Existentialist Cowboy”).

Kind Words for Our Talk Show Guests & My Author Friends

 

You will also note (as by “Googling” “doug drenkow”) that I have occasionally written reviews or praise about the works of some of my friends, such as Peter Stekel and André Coleman, who are acclaimed authors, as well supportive comments for online writing by some of the guests on the talk shows I produced, such as political consultant Robert Creamer, professor and author Harvey J. Kaye, writer/publisher Arianna Huffington, former Ambassador Swanee Hunt, Jim “Jibjab” Meskimen, veterans’ advocate Paul Rieckhoff, and Ken Waldman (“Alaska’s Fiddling Poet”).

A Family Tradition of Exercising & Protecting Freedom

 

Although using modern media, I am continuing a tradition dating back to the turn of the last century, when my Great-Grandfather Henry Winter spoke out in support of other small farmers and working families, as at national conventions of the Democratic Party; he was simply, yet courageously exercising his new-found freedom as an American. I thank all those who have devoted — or even given — their lives so that we may speak freely (Loving our country even more than he hated fighting, my father gave up an automatic deferment as a defense-plant worker to volunteer for the U.S. Army Air Force during the height of World War II). It is not only our right but also our responsibility to speak our minds, so that those who come after us may also be free.

 

The family of my Great-Grandfather & -Grandmother Winter, whose centennial in America was featured in the 1971 Academy Award®–nominated Documentary (Short Subject) The Numbers Start With The River, co-produced by the United States Information Agency.

DATE	TITLE
2007	[Virtually all of my political communication in 2007, as in late 2006 (See below), was personal e-mail correspondence to and from individual activists, including Democratic Party leaders. According to my records and the archives of OpEdNews.com, DailyKos.com, etc., I wrote nothing for general publication in 2007 — which might have had something to do with my marrying Frances in February of that year! And also, Barry Gordon and I were having meetings with national radio syndicators. As you can see, things picked up, in terms of my political publications and mass e-mailing, in the historic election year of 2008.]

Late 2006	[In August of 2006, my father passed away, after several months of succumbing to lung cancer; with the help of hospice nurses, I had been his sole caregiver. I moved from our home, the only one I had ever known, into the family home of my fiancée, with whom I was also planning our wedding, scheduled for shortly after the first of the year. It was a time of much personal trauma and little political writing, although I was working fulltime as producer of Barry Gordon From Left Field, booking nationally known guests.]
