Green Party do is ask for money from people and stroke checks. I have attended
several Green Party meetings in the past, and I have found that they mostly
talk, ask for money (sustainers), stroke checks and do little else. The last
meeting I attended last year at Bohemeo’s when <st1:PersonName w:st="on">Deb
Shafto </st1:PersonName>was running for governor was spent with Green Party
members griping about being in debt because of the lawsuit filed by the TX
Democrats and wondering how they could collect enough money to pay off the
debt. Toward the end of the meeting, I piped up and asked if anybody was going
to talk about his/her campaign strategy and what issues he or she was going to
run on. That wasn’t discussed, so I left.<o:p></o:p></span></font></b></p>

middle to upper middle class people who have no earthly idea what life is like
for the vast majority of working class people and especially people of color.
They are out of touch with the reality of life for workers and this is why
working class people do not vote for them. Blacks don’t vote for them,
and Hispanics don’t vote for them. I told them last year to focus on
pocketbook issues, but they didn’t. They always want to focus on the
environment and women’s choice issues and the death penalty. While all
these things are important, you must focus on pocketbook issues especially
because people, and especially people of color, are struggling mightily to pay
the bills and eat at the same time.<o:p></o:p></span></font></b></p>

this shindig to introduce the party to people of color and have this barbeque
and also have people there to register folks to vote and talk about the GP.
Nobody wanted to help me with this except one gentleman of color. He got
disgusted with the GP and left them. Also, the guy who is considered a leader
in that community refused to return my phone calls. He is a black man, and I am
white. So, if blacks are not willing to work with whites and vice versa we are

participate in a different way? Those of us who are informed among the
tens of millions who are not, just us. If we resist yet participate in a
different way, I am certain that we would see vastly different people elected
and vastly different policies.<br>
<br>
I agree with you that Blacks get absolutely nothing for their votes--that
didn't just start with Barack Obama. Not voting yields the field to the
bad team. Why not say, OK, we're going to play by our rules this
time. Just imagine if we had 1 million Black voters, and 1 million White
voters, and 1 million Latino voters to say no Democrat or Republican will get
my vote. Period. And we strategize and actually elect some people
and kick some incumbents out.<br>
<br>
Why concede the game by not getting ready for the fight? I am absolutely
certain that if we fielded a good team with an innovative coach, we could win,
too. The other side fight for their values and because they know how to
fight and are willing to change in order to carry out the fight, they
win. That's what Obama represents. Their tradition of cooptation
and change--not ours!!!<br>
<br>
I think the values that we believe in are too important to allow the bad guys
to win all the time because we're not willing to try something different, something
new. <br>
<br>
Now, if I still didn't believe that it is possible to elect good people to
office and that there is utility in them being there, then I would agree with
you to withdraw.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Selling of the President 1960, as I believe the book was called (please correct
me if I am mistaken), marked the public acknowledgment of the use of
Madison Avenue advertising techniques in American Political campaigns, and was
an eye-opener for many in 1961. The so-called Founding Fathers no
doubt failed to realize the ability of money to manipulate present
day corporate media when they set up a republic in which only
propertied, white, non-slave, males could vote. Some of them would
certainly have been relieved to learn of the media-organizing power of money
these days. A political party without money is pretty nearly a party
without power in this country, now.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

And of course the Supreme Court over the last 35 years or so has not helped,
declaring money the equivalent of Free Speech in the 1970's, and just a little over
a year ago determining that corporations can make direct political
contributions, just like real people.<br>
<br>
Well, rest assured that no capitalist corporate money is coming the way of
the Green Party. What we have to sell - positions on the issues
that support the people, not the rich and the corporations - the
corporations ain't buyin', and the GP is, therefore, unable to purchase
time from the corporate media. This leaves the GP with the
obvious two pronged hope that, as things get worse in our plutocratic
democracy, the people will discredit the corporate media more and
more and turn to an alternative media uncorrupted, or not as badly
corrupted by the corporations, and that, while unable to fundraise on the scale
of the Duopoly, the ever increasing number of discriminating people who
realize the importance of supporting the non-corporate party will begin
donating.<br>
<br>
We are in a better position than we have ever been before in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Texas</st1:place></st1:State>. The Green Party of
Texas has survived ten years of incredible austerity, we are guaranteed
ballot access through 2012 and we are in a good position to extend that after
2012, and in our poverty (and endurance) we have learned
to stretch a dollar and be more cost effective than any other
party. We don't need as much money as the Duopoly, but some money would
help . . . you know, until we can effect the separation of corporation and
state.<br>
