We need to be supporting Kucinich, no one else measures up.
The following is from Kucinich organizers in southern
Alameda County.
San Francisco: Green Festival
Dennis will be a Keynote speaker at the San Francisco Green
Festival on Saturday, Nov. 8th at 8 p.m. on the Main Stage,
Concourse Pavilion, 8th & Brannan
Info: www.greenfestivals.org
He is also at Kresge Auditorium on the Stanford campus at 1
p.m., definitely not a Green event, although it is free,
and in Sunnyvale at Four Points Sheraton Ballroom, 1250
Lakeside Drive at 3 p.m.

Agreed!
The other problem we are facing is the lack of paper trails
with the touch-screen voting machines produced by old
friends of Georgie. The results from these machines can be
hijacked far easier than the old punch cards, and if you
thought the recounts with hanging chads was scary, wait til
your vote disappears without a trace. Please demand a
method where your vote can be tracked and accounted for if
necessary. Machines that issue a receipt like the average
ATM strike me as a good idea. Anyone have a way to
implement this?
