On our to do list in Denver is to check out some of the fun activities being planned by Recreate 68:

Shake Your Money Maker, The Denver Mint Building, 5pm

It’s time to redistribute the wealth. The event will use a little magic and energy to draw attention to the issue of poverty that plagues our communities. The rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer. Poverty and capitalism are the biggest killers in this country. Between security and corporate pay-offs, the DNC will cost over $100 million dollars. We think the people deserve that money. Join us as we encircle the Denver Mint (where U.S. currency is produced) and use our collective power to raise the mint building in the air and shake the money out of it for the people. Don’t forget a sack to put all of your loot in.

OK, then. On a more serious note, the group of "grassroots people who are tired of being sold out by the Democratic Party" is planning marches, protests, street theater, and concerts. They are also providing free food and medical for participants. They seem pretty organized.
