Please take a look at Cynthia McKinney's Green Party acceptance speech. If you like what she says, help spread her message that there are alternative choices to the dysfunctional two party system.

Part I:

Part II:

Corporations and special interests are trying to keep other voices (particularly the public's) out of the public policy decisions. Nationally, the Green Party is trying to get 5% of the vote to institutionalize the Green Party as well as get much needed federal funding.

Also check out other candidates on the GreenProgress YouTube channel, particularly ones in your state.

Please look over these ten values:

GRASSROOTS DEMOCRACY
SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
ECOLOGICAL WISDOM
NON-VIOLENCE
DECENTRALIZATION
COMMUNITY-BASED ECONOMICS AND ECONOMIC JUSTICE
FEMINISM AND GENDER EQUITY
RESPECT FOR DIVERSITY
PERSONAL AND GLOBAL RESPONSIBILITY
FUTURE FOCUS AND SUSTAINABILITY

Do you agree with most if not all of these?

If you do, the Green Party is for you. The Green Party is in an exciting time of monumental growth from the ground up. It is a party for the people and by the people; no corporate money is accepted.
