Rigged Convention Divides Green Party
Nor did the web site explain the delegate formula or justify the size of each state’s delegation so that Greens could follow the process.

Most Greens assumed that delegates were proportioned according to a one-person one-vote system as any democratic organization would normally assume.
Only the Cobb campaign organized a turn out of their supporters for these no...

Bush but to stop Nader, to protect the two party pro-corporate rule
that America lives under....
