Another black American is running for President . Cynthia McKinney, a former Democrat from Georgia, was one of only three members of Congress to vote "yes" on a House Resolution in 2005 calling for the immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq. One of her last acts in office was introducing Articles of Impeachment naming George Bush, Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice.

Jump To Comment: 1 2There will probably be a few left /environmental /anti war candidates running in the November poll . McKinney seems the best to have come forward so far . The outcome of the election will effect the whole of the world - that's if Bush doesn't find some reason to cancel it of course . It seems a pity that the rest of the world doesn't have any say in who gets to have their finger on the button.

Back in the time of Franklin Roseveldt candidates who were socialists used
to get substantial number of votes,
There should be a message to distressed communities not to
expect anything from establishment agencies and political parties.
