Darth Nader has sucessfully neautralized the effectiveness of the Green Party USA. Where once there was a glimmer of hope, now is only the darkness of doubt. The Gore Majority is in a better posistion 2 bring about progressive change now than any Xisting 3rd party on the radar... The pathetic reality is that no 1 is on deck, but the 1 thing that is 4 sure, Darth Nader has NO FUTURE in politics & only has himself 2 blame, & I support the international Green Party. If I thought I was actually going 2 C a tax rebate, I might concider a donation 2 National Public Radio, (WAMU will never C a penny of my money...) although I don't make enough 2 qualify 4 a rebate. I made about $750 last year... go figure. Quit working. That's the way 2 bring the corporations down. Just say no, I refuse 2 B a wage slave...
