    Does ordering the Prohibition Presidential candidates pie cookbook warrant as exclusive material?

    I think the GP very much warrants coverage. I’d like to see more of it, actually. And will strive to provide some unless/until we get more Green bloggers.

    That can be your beat, Mike.

    I guess there needs to be someone to cover the Prohibition Party to even it out a bit.

    “Should give equal time to the Socialists and Prohibitionists all the time too?”

    Yes, that’s how we roll in this part of town. But if it offends your gaze, you can easily click the category tags on the top left and only read what you wanna read.

    There shouldn’t be more Green posts than LP or CP. It’s a second tier third party with no hope of making the type of impact Nader, Barr, and even Baldwin will have on this election. Should give equal time to the Socialists and Prohibitionists all the time too?

    Let’s keep it fair and base it on past performance and pending prospects. It’s not looking as bright for the Greens in either case.

    Also, I don’t think we have more GP posts than LP.
    I expect to be posting a lot more, and wish we had more Green bloggers on board.

    Some people took a while to get their videos put together and posted. I still need to go through my convention notes, which I have less excuse for. It happens.

    There seem to be a lot of GPUSA postings here. Two weeks AFTER the GPUSA convention!

    I get the feeling the GP sent it’s YouTubes and news releases via USPS!

    PEACE

    When I was in the Green Party there were a lot of Greens who thought FARC were the good guys in this situation.
