The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) requires 15% in at least five national polls to participate in the debates and the current, two-party candidates have acquiesced to the thresholds created by the CPD. Garnering 15% in five national polls is a high bar but not unachievable IF there were actually five national polling firms that fairly included third party and independent candidates.

You are invited to join GlobalPundit.Org eMagazine for a post - debate discussion HERE starting at 11:59 EST, Sept 26
We invite anyone and everyone to come discuss the evening’s debate and any ensuing issues and topics surrounding it. This will be our inuagural Video BlogCast and we hope you enjoy it.
Tell all your political-nerd friends, wonks, revolutionaries, voyeurs, pundtwits, and other good folk. We plan on implementing a few cameras and having some special guests - as time and technology permits. So whether you spent the night doing a shot of tequila after every time John McCain said “My Friends…”, or chugged beer as you counted “one Mississippi…two Mississippi…” over Barack Obama’s long, pseudo deliberative pauses, all the better.

My brother and I live in Minneapolis, very close to St.Paul, -within a 10
minute drive to the RNC (Xcel Energy Center, downtown St.Paul). On day four
of the RNC, we went down to once again witness and video the grand old
circus, -kept safe by a massive police state. Our aim was to post up the
news and events that we saw to our Kucinich forum friends at the RNC. This
is the news from that day as it looked to us.

Unlike the plan to build a tri-state government in Iraq, I don’t want to force the Iraqi government to adopt any government devised by the U.S.. That can only lead to more hostility and sectarian violence. Separating people that once lived side by side in harmony makes no sense. We all have seen what the break up of Yugoslavia led to. That pattern is not the pathway to peace. It is only a new path to War.
I would offer the Iraqis a simple solution to their deeply troubled Nation. I propose that we assist the Iraqi’s in building Weapons Free Safe Zones where they can prosper in Renewable Energy Villages far away from any threat of Terror.

David Jon Sponhein is running as an independent, write-in presidential candidate. Based in idyllic Washington State, his surroundings have left us to define him as a cross between a Jeffersonian Democrat and a Libetarian.

12 DAY CONVENTION PHOTO RECAP: DAY 9 of 12-RNC DAY 1
( Originally posted Sept 9/08)
more photos to be posted from Day 1 RNC asap
There was no question that the RNC was going to be different from the DNC (they have been, almost three cycles running now, from 2000 to 2008), and by the time I dragged my exhausted ragdoll self from Minneapolis to St.Paul to the Uptake.Org Offices, we were greeted, from the vantage point of our excellent locale, with Day One Protest Action. As you have seen in the videos from Day 8 “Police…”, Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office engaged in all sorts of ‘preemptive actions’ against journalists, organized protest groups, and alleged terror cells. I really don’t know why anyone was surprise considering the $50 million plus budget allocated for “security”.

For those of us know all to well to be looking between the lines, we think you’ll understand what Davis is trying to convey. While your at it, have a peek at www.operationitch.com.
Unless of course, you hear a few platitudes and are willing to give certain people a total pass. But that just proves you don’t know your history, doesn’t it? Well?

It is with sincere sadness and condolences to his friends and family that we report the passing of Peter Miguel Camejo. Before we go ahead and post some links to the information about this Venezuelan - American’s life, we thought it prudent to share a few brief reminiscences of the few times we had the pleasure of having the honour of speaking to this eloquent and intellectually courageous activist.
