Look at the progress Maine, Illinois, California and now Arkansas have made. It takes leaders. We need more of those.

It is huge, and Jesse deserves the endorsement. To learn a bit more about mountain top removal and Jesse's campaign, listen to the GPW Radio interview with him <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Gregg-Jocoy/2008/09/28/Green-Party-Watch-Radio" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.

That's huge. My local Sierra Club continues to endorse a Republican incumbent because he could be worse. They've consitently done so over a very progressive Democrat and a Green over several cycles. The Illinois Sierra Club president is a Democrat hack. When I ran for State Rep, I faxed in my endorsement questionnaire to the Illinois League of Conservation. I received an answering machine message from some Democratic Ward headquarters in Chicago. Many of the environmental and labor groups continue to cling to the Dems regardless of how strong of a Green candidate is in the race. Really glad to see the WV Sierra Club has a spine and endorsed such a great Green candidate. Go Jesse! Wow. That’s huge.
