The best way to make this a real success is to bill it as a Birthday Salute to the President. Before you say no (you killed this idea last yea:r), I want to say it would not be a public media event as much as it would be a Democratic Party function. It will be covered but would not be a TV special as we talked about last year. It would enhance tickets sales as well as g.et top flight talent to come and perform.
