David Cobb: McKinney for president
Found on The Arcata Eye
I am proud to say that I will be voting for Green Party member Cynthia McKinney for President of the United States this year.
….she realizes that real systemic change will require a broad and deep social movement linked to a political party rooted in that social movement. And she knows that principled progressives have been sold out and lied to by the corporate-controlled Democratic Party leadership.
Third parties have always been the voice of the people, especially during times when great changes are needed. So if you want a U.S. foreign policy based on human rights, if you oppose the war in Iraq, if you support a living wage, if you want universal health care for all, please consider registering to vote as a member of the Green Party.
As a registered Green, you vote for peace, social justice, sustainability and grassroots democracy every single day. How? Because your registration sends a powerful message to elected officials, to the media and to the entire world that you are committed to a fundamental transformation of how our government and our society operates.
