Another Hat In The Ring

Thanks to Brother Omi, I was introduced to Cynthia McKinney, a presidential candidate running(?) on the Green Party ticket. Brother Omi promised I'd like what she had to say, and for the most part I do.

We both see eye to eye on the environment and the war and reproductive rights for women, as well as capital punishment and even corporate globalization issues.

It's just that...well...I had a question on her position on immigration that I need to look into. Plus I don't agree with her drug policy position, and the jury is still out on whether or not I support stem cell research, which McKinney voted for.

And I'm also afraid that voting for her won't count, take away the votes for the Dems, and then give the Republicunts (Lani's word, not mine LOL) the White House and hence, I lose my reproductive rights and our soldiers remain overseas settling a Bush vendetta.

See! This is why I never bothered to vote before! Now I have to think and research and read shit!

And NOW not only does my throat hurt (see previous post) but my head is throbbing, too!!!

To read up on Cindy (yeah, I can call her that if I want to; it's MY blog!), see the link below:
