    • A New Political Party Is Needed

      Posted by statusquobuster from OpEdNews

      Set aside any Obama euphoria you feel. The other important news is that third-party presidential candidates had a miserable showing this year, totaling just over one percent of the grand total with 1.5 million votes nationwide, compared to some 123 million votes for Barack Obama and John McCain.

    • Florida Libertarians Nominate Candidate and Strategy Continues

      Posted by Damianmann

      Libertarians have a reputation of being dedicated and focused activists who tend to be community leaders to begin with, who leverage their influence with attention getting ideas supported by quiet coalitions with a wide array of groups. And it would make the Libertarian Party of Florida, or LPF, say observers, not only the largest civic action network in the State, but one of the strongest in the country. It would in effect make it a Libertarian community or city spread through the State.

    Damianmann:  You, like so many, are very ill informed; a huge fraction of Obama money came from all the usual corporate, special interests; you just ate the propaganda hook line and sinker.

    for a stusquobuster, you sure sound like the usual blah blah blah from the right.

    You seem to think Obama invented big money politics. All he did was perfect it. AND, he did it with small donations …..something the right never even considered. THEY prefer those corporate donations.

    Mostly what Obama proved is that the ability to give great talks and to use huge sums of money for campaigning work.

    I think Obama, in a way, proved that a third party can be viable. It will take serious organization. But, it CAN be done. I think we have to wait to see how Obama does. If he fails, which they all do eventually, then we can sell the idea that we gave both parties complete control…and neither one was able to accomplish ****.
