GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo.- TBD Colorado, a statewide conversation around some of Colorado's largest issues, opened its multi-region public summits on Saturday in Durango, Glenwood Springs and Pueblo.

TBD, also known as "To Be Determined," was the name given to a nonpartisan group formed by Gov. Hickenlooper to tackle tough political issues.

The five areas discussed during the group's Western Slope visit were education, health, transportation, the budget and workforce issues.

"Even though the the TBD Colorado board came up with these five issues, the people through the regional meeting said the other issue we really want to talk about is the state constitution. Today we're also talking about the complexity of the state constitution and what needs to change or not change for us to move forward," said Paul Alexander, a member of the Lead Facilitation Team for TBD Colorado.

TBD will present its findings to officials in December.

Every person in Colorado can participate in TBD Colorado by logging on to www.TBDColorado.org.

As I see it, the tough political issue of the Marxists wanting to usurp The Constitution will be solved the first Tuesday in November. The solution is crystal clear. Remove the people who purposely cry "wolf" or "the sky is falling" all the time in order to divert attention from their own failed policies will solve any pending "crisis" that has been feigned. All one needs to do is look at the statistics to understand these folks are unfit to run a hot dog stand, let alone manage a state or a country.
