'Prez on the Rez' hopes to finalize roster

Friday, March 30, 2007  

Kalyn Free, the organizer of the "Prez on the Rez" forum, hopes to confirm a roster of Democratic candidates within the next few weeks.

So far, only New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson (D) has confirmed his attendance. But Free, a member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, expects all the other Democratic hopefuls to attend.

The event will be held August 23 on the Morongo Reservation in southern California.
