Oct 23-Third Party Debate News Update
admin @ October 23, 2008 # One Comment
As reported by Free And Equal, the Nader Campaign, And the Constitution Party
other relevent sites to visit are www.breakthematrix.com and www.thirdpartydebate.com
As reported, ALL candidates have been invited, and one must ask about the absence of the “main candidates” in a system that a) considers itself a ‘democracy’, b) has the mainstream media not report this event whatsover, and c) fails to report on the reason that voter turnout, in the most basic understanding of math, ignores the essential majority that has no faith in the system at all to even bother registering a ballot. It’s not rocket science –in fact, it’s a cry from the people for something else. And a suspicious thing when 2 parties control access to information…

OpEd: Stolen Votes and Stolen Elections
admin @ October 20, 2008 # 16 Comments
I’ve been accused of dissing the election porn industry, the people like Greg Palast, Mark Crispin Miller, Bev Harris, and others who investigate, analyze, document, and publicize stolen elections while encouraging people to vote. Most of them claim that by carefully monitoring an election, it is possible to deter or prevent vote theft. Even if that were the case, which it is not, since no matter how closely you observe an election, you cannot prove that a vote was stolen until after it has been stolen, it would not prevent election theft.

What I Learned At The Sarah Palin Rally Before They Threw Me Out
admin @ October 8, 2008 # 4 Comments
On Saturday I went to Carson, California, to attend a rally for Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin. For those who aren’t familiar with the city of Carson, it’s approximately 19 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. In the 2004 Presidential election, Carson, which had a population of just under 90,000, donated three times as much money to George W. Bush than to John Kerry. This year, for the 2008 elections, residents of Carson have given slightly more to Republican candidates than to Democrats by a slim margin of $3,000. Thus the gap between Republicans and Democrats in Carson has narrowed. The Palin rally, which you may have seen on youtube and TV, was held at the Home Depot ADT Tennis Stadium.

Scoop: Cindy Sheehan Reveals Plan for New Political Party, Reflects on Race Against Pelosi
admin @ October 7, 2008 # 2 Comments
Anti War activist and challenger for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Congressional Seat (CD 8, California), Cindy Sheehan has indicated her intention to launch a National political party after the U.S. Election of Nov. 4
Inspired in part by Mark Twain’s involvement in The American Anti Imperialst League (also chaired by Andrew Carnegie and former President Grover Cleveland, fyi) in reaction to the annexation of the Phillippines by the United States in the late 19th Century, Sheehan said that the party will have a progressive platform and that after Nov. 4, “no matter what happens, we need to consolidate the energy against Imperialism and work on building another party movement.”
