<p>At the forefront of opposing the wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq, Hayden was a leader in ending the Vietnam War a generation ago and has unmatched experience of 18 years as an elected official and 50 years of fighting for the public interest.</p>
<p class="NoSpacing">Among the things Mr. Hayden will be talking about are the economic, environmental, and human costs of war; the proportion of our taxes that go to the military; the threat to our democracy from the military-industrial complex - how the defense industry and other forces quash democracy through use of lobbyists, legislators, and media; and, how we can move toward an economy and society that benefits human welfare.</p>
