These are the bizarre people that seem to think everyone who’s not a Republican or a Democrat is interchangeable with any other non-Rep/Dem.

If they pledged their signatures to Chuck Baldwin months ago, why did they bother with all of these antics about Bloomberg, Paul, and Pickens? It just makes third parties look bad in the media, which is already unfriendly to us in general.

I never thought in all my living days there would be such a political alliance.

Surely you were joking…

“Right On…Jason…Where’s Gus Hall and Linda Jeness(sp?) when their contry needs them????”
Wrong parties. Gus Hall, who is dead, was in the Communist Party. Linda Jenness the Socialist Workers. Neither of which is the Socialist Party USA.

I’ll lay you a dollar to a donut that none of the people making these comments ever put anyone on any Presidential ballot line anywhere…and probably have never put anyone on any ballot anywhere.
Granted, the Independent Green Party of Virginia has a large umbrella, but it does give voters alternatives to the Republocrats. The voters then decide.
What opportunities have any of the above “commentators” given to any alternatives? What we have is the clear distinction between hot air and hard work.

Why is the hyperlink for Chuck Baldwin and Darrell Castle incorrect? The website is NOT baldwin.com, but baldwin08.com or baldwin2008.com . Please correct this.

It’s too bad that the Independent Greens tried to get publicity by misrepresenting themselves. They privately told Richard Winger that they were going to give their signatures to Baldwin and Castle, and then they turned around and publicly scolded him for reporting the truth instead of all of their hype about Bloomberg and Paul.
That’s typical of their party, unfortunately. Their party did not even exist until 2004, but they try to put their history all the way back to at least 1992. Another one of their tricks is to talk about all of the candidates that they have “endorsed/nominated”, in order to exaggerate the number of candidates they have run. Many of the candidates that they “endorsed/nominated” were not Independent Greens, but independents, some of whom refused their endorsement or even knew that they were being endorsed!
