I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on this.

Endorsements are nearly worthless.

That's a very good question. I'm not keen on any of the current candidates.

I don't think so. The focus needs to be beyond this election, which is sort of the whole point of this rally, to show we are going to stay a force and even grow as a force into the future. Endorsing someone now won't help that, it will just bring the focus back to what we are trying to get past.

For this election, it's more important to vote third party, in general, than to vote for a specific candidate. McKinney would ruin our economy but would have awesome Congressional oversight while we were going down in flames. She would also get convictions for the 9-11 crimes. Baldwin or Barr send the best RP message. I just looked at Baldwin's website and it's shockingly lame. It doesn't address very many issues, and when I clicked on an issue or two I got routed to a youtube video!

He is not keen to endorse anyone, he doesn't want to tell you how to vote decide on your own.

The CFL isn't allowed to make endorsements or detractions of any candidate or campaign. This was reported to us from today's festivities by Matt Collins who was at the leadership event and reporting to us live.

There is no one running that deserves his endorsement.

I'd like it if we could focus our votes. It would have more power.

As much as I disagree with him, I could even vote for an honest socialist like Kucinich. I don't see that as a vote for a lesser of two evils because he speaks the truth as he sees it. I don't see him as evil, I rather just disagree with him philisophically. Personally, I lean a little more towards Baldwin.

Neocons and Neolibs are just plain evil and must be protested at every oportunity.

I am still, for the sake of the world, hoping that he will endorse himself as Independent.

But it won't happen and we are all screwed harder and longer.

He just needs to endorse the idea of voting for a 3rd Party as a protest vote and telling his supporters to make that choice for a 3rd Party ticket. Doesn't have to endorse a specific one and tell them to stay away from the two tickets this summer, they're not real Democrats or Republicans.

He endorses the Constitution, Liberty & Freedom.

All else FAILS.

I highly doubt that RP will endorse anybody.

if there was someone worth endorsing at this moment ODDS ARE we would be supporting the hell out of that person BEFORE the endorsement anyways.

I like this idea.
