I really enjoyed Roseanne's online monolog explaining the 10 key values of the Green Party. <br /><br />She explained how the Feed in tariff, which requires your utility, like PG&E, to pay anyone who harvests solar energy and feeds it onto the grid, at $0.54 kWh. <br /><br />This FIT is a great social organizing tool, that has created 450,000 jobs in Germany in the last 5 years. <br /><br />The FIT has also created $4 billion in cash flow in Germany. Germany will be 100% solar by 2022, when they say they will shut down all their nukes, thanks to solar & renewables. <br /><br />After Fukushima, Germany decided they were getting so much solar energy from roof top solar, that they could afford to shut down half their nukes. <br /><br />In a wonderful act of solidarity with Japan, Germany shut down half its nukes. They refuse to use nuclear energy.<br /><br />Now Japan has adopted the FIT to flush nukes down the drain so Japan can go 100% solar by 2038.<br /><br />Youtube: paul8kangasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998867759586853536.post-71879792236426086992012-08-05T19:55:38.123-07:002012-08-05T19:55:38.123-07:00Finally a ticket I can vote for!

Since our 2008 candidate, Ralph Nader, came in third behind Obama and McCain, we are expecting great things from this dynamic duo. If you live in California, show your support by registering Peace and Freedom. If you live in another state, help put Roseanne and Cindy on the ballot.

How many other states do you expect to achieve ballot access in? Personally, I'm supporting Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala, and working to grow the Green Party. Ultimately we will all need to work together to dismantle the corrupt and broken two-party system and establish real democracy - political and economic - in the US.Alachua Greenhttp://www.jillstein.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998867759586853536.post-46856139392947736352012-08-05T10:10:24.093-07:002012-08-05T10:10:24.093-07:00Bravo and congratulations!

You and Roseanne have to stay upbeat and more clever than the presstitutes who will try their damnedest to marginalize you and demonize you (if they were able to do that to an icon like Nader, nobody is immune). <br /><br />Humor, sticking to the big issues (but in a way that people relate to on an emotional and personal level), and painting a positive image of what we CAN have and be, is the key to staying relevant and appealing. I would also emphasize that a vote for Barr/Sheehan IS a protest vote against the cyst-em itself, that you recognize up front the corrupt and rigged nature of the elections, that this is a rejection of the War Party Uniparty Duopoly, and that unless the (s)elected winner gets more than 50% of the vote, much less 50% of the WHOLE of eligible voters (many who are so turned off they don't vote at all), that winner has NO mandate and is NOT the legitimate representative of THE PEOPLE!<br /><br />What is your ticket's status in New York State? Are you seeking to get the nomination of any existing party there, or will it be a write-in campaign?Steve Krulickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637784203722495662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998867759586853536.post-9663206424697819692012-08-05T07:55:06.899-07:002012-08-05T07:55:06.899-07:00The reaction I had when it was announced that you ...The reaction I had when it was announced that you and Roseann are running was, "This is going to be interesting." I will not vote for the lesser of two evils; I want to be proud of my vote. Looking forward to your campaign and will help when I can. Take care and know you are one of my heroes.lonevethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418817834687416384noreply@blogger.com
