I imagine most Greens (if they have any sense left) will split their vote between Nader and Obama now. Mckinney is a reverse racist nut who supports slavery reparations.

Oh well. I just wanted to correct some of your truthy factual errors: Rosa Clemente never offered to debate Cheney. It's bad form to make up quotes. She did, however, say that Cheney would be horrified to see rich and poor, Christian and atheist, black and white and Latino, all working together to end his dream of a plutocratic military surveillance state. Cynthia McKinney has raised far more than 1K... not that Greens measure success by fundraising. In fact, Greens are working hard to get money out of politics. If anyone here is keeping an open mind, I encourage you to check out http://runcynthiarun.org/ Peace!

Libertarianism is <i>NOT</i> on the right. Constitutionalism is a republican (small R) philosophy, not a conservative philosophy. "The Bush Republicans" are more-accurately described as neoconservatives or conservative socialists. They combine a worship for democracy with the authoritarianism of the conservatism that existed prior to the short-lived "Old Right" (which itself was never truly right-wing, despite the name). “Radical-conservative Republicans” doesn't need a better definition. Neoconservatism is as much a form of conservatism as it is a form of socialism, and it is certainly an extremist position. Perhaps the word "radical" should be dropped, however, since it has a positive connotation. Sincerely, Alex Peak Libertarianism is NOT a form of conservatism.

There's actually a movement by the radical fringe of the religious right to write-in Bush and somehow get the 22nd overturned. Of course their reason for keeping Bush is that he's "God's President"... Ack!!! Are you sure that he isn’t?

At one point, Clemente said something like, "I'm ready to debate you, Cheney." Apparently, she is unaware that Cheney is not actually running for Vice President again.
