					<description>Say NO to McBama!

Say NO to Republicrats!

Say NO to Establishment media outlets!

Say NO to bipartisan trashing of the Constitution!

Cast a protest vote for a 3rd party presidential candidate of your choice.

Tell everyone why you will vote against the lesser of two evils.

Tell everyone who you will vote for.

Tell everyone what you think.

Be heard: http://SayNO2008.com

&quot;The strongest message can be sent by rejecting the two party system... This can be accomplished by voting for one of the non-establishment, principled candidates.&quot; - Ron Paul</description>

					<description>Since when is being against ILLEGAL aliens a racist thing? It is about time someone dares approach the topic even though there is always that fear that if we dare to criticize lawbreaking illegal aliens, we will surely be called 'racists'. Serious.. Get real! We like McKinney's views on 9-11 truth, and she has even been interviewed in many of Alex Jones/Infowars.com dvd's as well as Dr Paul. But she doesn't have the same backing as Ron Paul. Yes, we know we will get a tyrant in the oval office rather then a patriot like Paul, but that doesn't diminish the idea that the fight needs to be wages anyhow.</description>

					<description>Anti-immigrant racists?  Paul isn't anti-immigrant.  It's the &quot;illegal&quot; part that rankles his followers.</description>

					<description>And I hope anti-immigrant racists remain off of minority parties, otherwise, what's the difference? They might as well stay either Republican or Democrat.
Vote for Cynthia McKinney.</description>

					<description>Just as the Indy Greens seek a Bloomberg/Paul coalition, we seek a Jones/Wales coalition. If there is anyone interested in helping Star Jones and Jimmy Wales get on the ballot, please say so in the comments of this thread. Think about it this way: Star Jones and Jimmy Wales have more in common than Mike Bloomberg and Ron Paul.</description>

					<description>Sivarticus: exactly! 
It should be pointed out that Bloomberg himself has called on Independents to unite:
http://www.independenceminnesota.org/blog/articles/89-bloomberg-calls-for-independents-to-unite
Unity 08 has explored the possibility of a Paul/Gravel ticket and then Bloomberg-Hagel ticket earlier this year.
It is a good think the discussion is starting. Third parties need to negotiate cooperation and points of common interest together, otherwise they make themselves laughable and marginalize themselves.</description>

					<description>Uh, yeah, that's all it would take to make this nonsense &quot;a serious drive.&quot;

Let's see........three minor parties that are virulently opposed to each other on countless fundamental issues are going to nullify the results of their conventions, reconvene brand new conventions (at a cost to be borne by the so-called Independent Green Party, presumably, since this is their idea), convince each of their respective nominees to withdraw their candidacies, file lawsuits in states where they are already certified for the ballot to have the names of two people who aren't running for anything substituted........and on and on and on........because Carey Campbell, whose little group can't get publicity in Virginia any other way, has a jones for two famous people. Apparently Mr. Campbell forgot his promise to the Constitution Party regarding all the signatures his vast amounts of free time permitted him to collect, after the Nader campaign turned him down.

Joe Oddo (who, by the way, is listed by the Nader campaign as their &quot;Northern Virginia petition coordinator&quot;....which is it, Joe?  Nader, Bloomberg, Baldwin, or someone else?) uses the correct word when he says &quot;Imagine debates with a third alternative&quot; (as if he's originating that concept), since &quot;imaginary&quot; is the only word that describes this self-promoting, LaRouche-like drivel.</description>

					<description>It might be more of a serious drive if they would give states/parties some leniency to reverse the ticket. Paul/Bloomberg would be much better.</description>
