Four years ago, Al Giordano had some advice for the "protest movement" (yeah, I'm looking at you OWS). Add a coherent political message, banners, leaflets, a dance tune that resonates with the message, and such to a dancing musical flash mob like these and you have the seeds of a new, more effective, kind of protest than the tired old marching around in circles of the last century that has ceased to win any cause for anyone. Yesterday the young people of Generation Progress took it to Central Park with Donte Stallworth to encourage young people to "Get Covered." That's how its done, folks.
