I was at the St Louis protest in 04 where both Cobb and Badnarik (Libertarian prez candidate) got arrested for trying to get included in the debate. Barely a peep from the media. How about staging informational protests at debate viewing events? Lots of colleges have large viewing events that we could crash and educate the viewers about the Greens.

Tell the CPD that you want open, democratic debates: http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/o/1488/t/689/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=2330 Most Americans recognize that it is unfair for parties to control the debates... but the corporate media ignores this issue, leaving it to us to spread the truth. Become the alternative media by sharing this action link with your colleagues, friends and family. Here’s one idea:
