I think the 'marching orders' are clear. Here is what we have to work with as of today.
.
Goal: Make the best showing possible. (Third Party)
:)Positive input more than welcome and definately needed, negative input tolerated.:)
Ballot access, Electoral Votes, Agreement, determins which 3rd Party gets my vote. Yes, a compromise :eek: to make the best 3rd Party showing. *gulp* the 3rd Party with the best chances to make a good showing.
LIBERTY DETESTS FEAR
If the Repubs & Dems can compromise to lead our Country to destruction I believe we can compromise to slow it down and stop it.
I have yet to figure the ballot access in conjunction with Electoral College, maybe someone has it or could put it together.
Makes it simple for me, I like simple.
The Ballot access bit: http://www.ballot-access.org/
The Electoral College Vote bit: http://www.270towin.com/?gclid=CM_Ww6DE0pUCFQhsgwod_VD0iw ( I used this particular map because of the assumed "no choice" it represents )
The 'agreement' bit: (Barr folks please do tell if Libertarian Party is also in agreement) http://www.campaignforliberty.com/blog/?cat=1
The Republican/Democrat duopoly has, for far too long, ignored the most important issues facing our nation. However, alternate candidates Chuck Baldwin, Cynthia McKinney, and Ralph Nader agree with Ron Paul on four key principles central to the health of our nation. These principles should be key in the considerations of every voter this November and in every election.
We Agree
Foreign Policy: The Iraq War must end as quickly as possible with removal of all our soldiers from the region. We must initiate the return of our soldiers from around the world, including Korea, Japan, Europe and the entire Middle East. We must cease the war propaganda, threats of a blockade and plans for attacks on Iran, nor should we re-ignite the cold war with Russia over Georgia. We must be willing to talk to all countries and offer friendship and trade and travel to all who are willing. We must take off the table the threat of a nuclear first strike against all nations.
Privacy: We must protect the privacy and civil liberties of all persons under US jurisdiction. We must repeal or radically change the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, and the FISA legislation. We must reject the notion and practice of torture, eliminations of habeas corpus, secret tribunals, and secret prisons. We must deny immunity for corporations that spy willingly on the people for the benefit of the government. We must reject the unitary presidency, the illegal use of signing statements and excessive use of executive orders.
The National Debt: We believe that there should be no increase in the national debt. The burden of debt placed on the next generation is unjust and already threatening our economy and the value of our dollar. We must pay our bills as we go along and not unfairly place this burden on a future generation.
The Federal Reserve: We seek a thorough investigation, evaluation and audit of the Federal Reserve System and its cozy relationships with the banking, corporate, and other financial institutions. The arbitrary power to create money and credit out of thin air behind closed doors for the benefit of commercial interests must be ended. There should be no taxpayer bailouts of corporations and no corporate subsidies. Corporations should be aggressively prosecuted for their crimes and frauds.
