Yes, it's the obligation of the Green Party to tell how great Obama is, how bad the GOP is and how Greens were responsible for Gore losing 2000 election, rather than 100,000 disenfranchised black votes and bags of illegal absentee votes and a media that actively campaigned for Bush.

And then if they have 20 seconds left, they might talk about how they'll help vote Democrat if they get elected.

Thanks, Donal. There's

Thanks, Donal. There's nothing like a first hand account from someone you kinda, sorta know.

I'm looking forward to when there is a real Native American caucus within the Green Party. When that happens, it's possible I might make a declaration of party preference and forego my independent status.

I'm not gonna hold my breath, though. Native Americans have a justified distrust of all things political. Even Winona LaDuke, an Anishinaabe and Nader's VP running mate, didn't get an endorsement from her own tribe.

NA's = tough audience.
But, it's always possible that pigs might fly.

And the reason it's not covered in the MSM is because USA Inc. and their subsidiaries do not think it of any importance since they have the monopoly. Exclusive contract as it were.

Christian admitted that it

Christian admitted that it was an old story, but asked about the idea that voting Green would cause a replay of Nader undercutting Gore. Manski felt that was a fraudulent argument perpetrated by the Democratic Party, that Pat Buchanan had also drawn away votes and that the Supreme Court had made the wrong decision. He thought it was a canard, and that Democrats act like they own their voters.

Actually they own the country along with the republicans and I am not just exaggerating here.

If the ACA pits the poor

If the ACA pits the poor against the very poor, why is the Republican Party so dead set against it? The Greens are in league with the Wall Street Journal on this? (see editorial this week by some schmuck from Texas 'Why ACA must be gone by 2014')

Are the Greens unable to admit Obama has actually done something progressive?

My guess is if they took corporate money, Koch would stealthily send a few million laundered dollars to them, in the hope they do in 2012, what Nader did in 2000.
