Mid-Fulton Democrats are a diverse group of people who strive to create a large, dynamic community of concerned citizens charged with communicating to the people of Atlanta the need to get educated about political issues affecting our lives. Get Engaged. It is important to learn about the issues, but civil society requires more: active participation in discussion and debate.

Young Democrats of Atlanta:
"In such a challenging world, such a fantastic and dangerous world, we will not find answers in old dogmas, by repeating outworn slogans, or fighting on ancient battlegrounds, against fading enemies, long after the real struggle has moved on. We ourselves much change, in order to master change. We must rethink our old ideas and beliefs, before they capture, and before they destroy us. For those answers, America must look to its young people, the children of this time of change." -Robert F. Kennedy, 1966
