Knocked on 80,571+ doors

The College Democrats pledges itself to continue to support the philosophy and candidates of the Democratic Party. Furthermore, the College Democrats intends to support all efforts to increase the participation of college students in Democratic affairs. To these ends, the College Democrats educates and trains its members so that they may be better able to:
