The Draft Peter Camejo for President Campaign 
Peter Camejo contends that a vote for a Democrat -- even a progressive -- is a vote for a system that has failed Americans and American ideals. He also argues that a Green candidacy moves the debate to the left, which he says increases a Democrat's chance of defeating Bush....

Kucinich Not As Perfect/Liberal As You Might Think... Kucinich Might not be as Liberal or Perfect as You Think... I even found some of his voting record pretty surprising... Voting with people like Joe Scarborough, Tom Delay, & Charles Pickering... I was surprised to see his harsh vote on wanting to jail/try 12ish year olds as Adults... Also some of his restrictions on Abortions... Also other Freedom restrictions on younger people... His vote against burning/desecrating Flag also bothered me... I don't like giving Feds more power, esp over ...

Get Off Your Ass and Do Something! A thick gloom has set in. As if beaten into submission by the corporatist media the dissidents among us have become increasingly silent. Bush's psychological war on Americans appears to have succeeded. We have become withdrawn, quiet and beneath the surface we smolder. Nary an anti-Bush bumper sticker can be seen, despite the fact that thousands are available online. Nary an anti-Bush button can be seen, though a Google search will reveal their availability. Unless you walk through the ...

In addition to this, an organization of FBI agents, the No Parole Peltier Association, has been phoning the organizers and telling...

From the war/occupation fronts Clearly all hell is breaking loose in Iraq. The “coalition” can’t get the oil out reliably. Look at the price of regular unleaded. The Iraqi people’s hatred grows each day. U.S. soldiers have lost the faith and are dying in numbers (513 admitted thus far) that either are, or will soon be, unacceptable to the U.S. public....
