I watched the video of Cynthia McKinney speaking outside the DNC and was
impressed with her speech, however, I am completely disappointed with the
rift between the McKinney/Clemente campaign and the Colorado Green Party. I
watched the two videos above of Claire Ryder discussing the CO Green Party
and also her ongoing communication with the McKinney/Clemente campaign and
her thoughts on the Recreate '68 group. According to Claire, she received
mixed messages from Cynthia McKinney's scheduler about whether or not
Cynthia would be the keynote speaker at the CO Green Party events outside
the DNC. She also discussed receiving some e-mails from Rosa Clemente and
also the lack of effective communication with Rosa. Claire Ryder also
mentioned a "smear campaign" that took place over e-mail and several blogs
disparaging her character, ethics etc. Claire mentioned she is very open to
mediation with the McKinney/Clemente campaign but thus far, she said she has
not heard from the campaign as to whether or not they will participate in a
dispute resolution.

I would like to hear from some HCGP members regarding this rift between the
CO Greens and the McKinney/Clemente campaign. I would very much like the
opinions of the HCGP members. Thanks.

Kris
