WASHINGTON, DC -- Green Party members attending the Green National Convention in Chicago, July 10-13, will bring donations for area shelters.
The collection is a project organized by Pat LaMarche, the Green Party's vice presidential nominee in 2004. During her 2004 campaign, Ms. LaMarche, who ran with presidential nominee David Cobb, went on a two-week cross country tour of urban homeless shelters, staying overnight at many of them or sleeping along side the homeless in the street in an effort to bring attention to veterans issues, the need for a living wage, affordable housing, and universal access to health care.

McKinney statement on Obama victory

Statement by Cynthia McKinney, Power to the People Candidate for U.S. President, on the nomination of Barack Obama as the Democratic Party's Presidential Candidate in 2008
(statement issued June 9, 2008)
On Saturday, June 7, 2008, Hillary Clinton announced that her 2008 presidential bid is over, making Barack Obama the first-ever Black presidential nominee of a major party in the history of the United States.
Congratulations to Senator Obama for achieving such a feat!
When I was growing up in the U.S. South in the racially turbulent 1960s, it would have been impossible for a Black politician to become a viable Presidential contender. Nothing a Black candidate could have done or said would have prevented him (or her) from being excluded on the basis of skin color alone. Many of us never thought we would see in our lifetime a Black person with a real possibility of becoming President of the United States.

Democrats' health care reform plans are designed to satisfy corporate backers

Democrats' health care reform plans are designed to satisfy corporate backers, not solve the health care crisis, say Greens
• Green candidates call Single-Payer/Medicare For All the only plan to help working Americans who need care most
• Corporate campaign money and sponsorship of Dem and GOP conventions will banish real health care and campaign finance reform, say Greens
WASHINGTON, DC -- Green Party leaders and candidates said today that the health care reform plans offered by Democratic candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are designed to benefit insurance and pharmaceutical corporations -- including contributors to their own campaigns -- rather than American people who need coverage and treatment.
