The GP-US Media Committee challenges Greens all over to put the Green Party and our candidates on the media map!

Our goal is to see ONE HUNDRED letters to the editor sent by Greens to newspapers throughout the US by the end of May. If enough letters get sent, a good percentage will get published, and hundreds of thousands — maybe millions — of voters will read about the Green Party and Green candidates. If you’d rather submit an op-ed column or an article to the newspaper of your choice, that’s fine too!

What should you write about? It’s up to you:

Please support the Green Party of Suffolk by bidding on an original piece of art donated to us for auction.

The painting is “Escaping the Fire” by Amityville poet/artist Lois V. Walker. The piece is being auctioned on E-Bay.

If you purchase this piece of orginal artwork, the price will be considered a donation to the Green Party of Suffolk. The Green Party of Suffolk does not accept donations from corporations. Your name and address will be collected to meet campaign finance reporting rules. Donations to political parties are not tax-deductible.

“We cannot be satisfied so long as the Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and the Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.”

Dear Friend,

Are you:
* Incredulous at the fact that two Presidential elections were stolen and no one was held accountable?
* Disappointed that, as a result, our country is at war, involved in torture, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and crimes against the peace?
* Concerned, especially in light of New Hampshire, that your vote might not be counted in November and that the will of the voters will be thwarted yet again with election fraud or outright theft?
* Disquieted that the use of electronic voting machines, coupled with laws that restrict public access to election data “owned” by voting machine companies, might thwart your ability to verify election results if they are in question?

800 people attended a Green Party presidential debate held in San Francisco on Jan. 13. Green Candidates Cynthia McKinney, Jared Ball, Kent Mesplay, Kat Swift and Jesse Johnson participated in the debate. Ralph Nader, who has yet to announce for 2008, addressed the crowd after the debate.

There is a new poll in the right sidebar. You can vote for your choice to be the Green Party presidential candidate in 2008. The candidates are taken from the list approved by the GP-US Presidential Campaign Support Committee.

Obviously unrelated, Greens for Greens has now added iPhone and iPod Touch compatibility. This is in addition to the pre-existing DS, PSP, and Wii accommodations. If you have any problems, please let me know.

As we get close to the fifth year of Greens for Greens, there will be a few more changes on the way, including a complete face lift. Thanks for visiting. -Roger Snyder
