A Personal Message from Mike Gravel
Dear friend,
I wanted to update you on my latest plans before news gets out. Today, I am announcing my plan to join the Libertarian Party, because the Democratic Party no longer represents my vision for our great country. I wanted my supporters to get this news first, because you have been the ones who have kept my campaign alive since I first declared my candidacy on April 17, 2006.
The fact is, the Democratic Party today is no longer the party of FDR. It is a party that continues to sustain war, the military-industrial complex and imperialism -- all of which I find anathema to my views.
By and large, I have been repeatedly marginalized in both national debates and in media exposure by the Democratic leadership, which works in tandem with the corporate interests that control what we read and hear in the media.
I look forward to advancing my presidential candidacy within the Libertarian Party, which is considerably closer to my values, my foreign policy views and my domestic views.
Please take a moment to make your most generous donation to my presidential campaign today. $10, $20, $50 -- whatever you feel you can afford.
I want to thank you all for your continued support.
Gratefully yours,

From Tilly Gokbudak_I must say this caught me by surprise! But, I guess this means there will be at least one third party option besides Ralph Nader this November. And, perhaps Gravel will go against Ron Paul for the Libertarian Party nomination...........that would be awesome, wouldn't it??! Ok, I guess I'm one of the few people who cares about this..... |
