Robert Stark of the Citizens Party posted this article about drafting Frosty Wooldridge for US Congress in Colorado in 2012. Wooldridge is an anti-immigration activist who comes at it from an environmentalist perspective.
The article contains Frosty’s platform.
I am not familiar with Warren but I think the party has a unique stand in regards to immigration and the environment. Environmentalist and Immigration restrictionist should be natural allies but the left-right paradime puts the former on the left and the latter on the right. Therefore the environmentalist movement has been hyjacked by the far left cultural marxist types and the anti-illegal immigration by right wing types who are not typically sympathetic to environmental protection. There is a large demographic and the Citizens Party can appeal to that.
So your party has simultaneous draft movements to encourage Nader, Warren, and multiple “anti-immigration activists” to run for president? Nader and quasi-ecofascists (in the actual sense of the word, not the right-wing bastardization) would probably have problems coexisting in the same party.
You know what the Citizens Party WordPress site announced a candidate as the Party launching the draft campaign.

I suppose by endorsing the group that is approval of the candidate.

And I should also add Elizibeth Warren and Dawn Stensland.
Other draft candidate groups include Ralph Nader, former Colorado Governor Dick Lamm, Economist John Medaille, immigration and environmental activist Yeh Ling-Ling, former candidate for LA mayor Walter Moore, and former Congressman Jim Traficant.
Thanks for posting the article. I just want to clarify. I started the draft group and members are allowed to start draft candidate groups. That does not mean that the Party Officially endorses these draft candidates at this point.
Are they even ballot qualified?
