[Peace-discuss] Quit the Party

[Jenifer Cartwright]

Uh.... that's how we got George W Bush. Dems aren't great (understatement) but no evidence Gore was poised to attack Iraq. Voting our conscience instead of the lesser of two evils doesn't affect the average independent voter all that much, but it sure as hell affects the rest of the world, foreign and domestic.

I didn't know you had to REGISTER as anything. I thought you just went 
into the primary and requested a ballot of your choice....which can now 
include a Green Party ballot.
