The 300 Pin
Certain Clinton Delegates wore a small green pin with a pen through "300". This was a special pin given to those of us who chose to sign a petition requesting that Hillary's name be placed into nomination. The minimum required signatures was 300. Each pin was numbered in order of the received petition. We had around 400 or so signatures. Wearing the pin was almost like a secret handshake. Each of us knew what it meant, however, probably a lot of other folks didn't know what it means. I'm sure that this petition had something to do with the Clinton and Obama camps coming together and allowing having her name placed in nomination. I heard that someone has already been offered $35 for their pin. I'm hanging onto mine.
