The National Federation of Democratic Women are meeting in Kansas City from June 11th through the 15th. Yesterday evening there was a reception and then, at 7:00 p.m., a PAC event where Claire Conner, author of “Wrapped in the Flag” – her memoir of growing up in a home steeped in the John Birch Society and the radical right, was the featured speaker.
