Fraudulent Democracy
Every major American city holds protests against "fraudulent democracy"
That's the headline I would like to see in the New York Times. But it won't happen --unless it is organized. And it won't be organized unless you print up some posters, make some phone calls, and write some letters.
First, find out about the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), and how they have conspired against meaningful and democratic debates.
Know that the CPD is comprised exclusively of Republicans and Democrats, while 38% of the American electorate is neither Rep- or Dem-.
Learn about how this private corporation has excluded candidates like Ralph Nader, even though a majority of Americans want him in the debates.
Consider protesting the CPD while calling for another forum for the excluded candidates.
Begin organizing NOW! Time is short.
