Has everyone seen this article: http://truth-out.org/news/item/22316-bernie-sanders-i-am-prepared-to-run-for-president-of-the-united-states ?I would sure like to see the Green Party talking to Bernie Sanders about possibilities!Michael D. HaugheyAJ Greens
I am currently reading Bernie Sanders' autobiography “Outsider in the House.” I agree that the Greens should be talking with Bernie Sanders about his possible presidential candidacy. He would be a very credible presidential candidate for the Greens. At the risk of contradicting myself, I'll say that I think Green Party members should encourage Bernie Sanders to run as a Green, but I also think Sanders is well aware that he has a much better chance of being taken seriously as a presidential candidate if he runs as a Democrat. The system is totally stacked against minor party and independent candidates. A presidential campaign under the perverted Electoral College system is a much more difficult prospect than an independent campaign in the second least populated state.Cheers,Gary
