Nader Vs. Baldwin; FIGHT!

As promised, here is a link to the interview with Cynthia McKinney that was held in lieu of the actual debate since she was the only one to commit.

There apparently was a third party debate, held about a week ago, and was on CSPAN-2. I didn't hear anything about it and was fortunate enough to stumble upon it. I've had the news on pretty consistently as of late, so...well, yeah. Take it for what it is. The debate was only between two of the third party candidates, in this case Ralph Nader (Independent in most states, but on the Peace and Freedom Party ticket in California and Illinois) and Chuck Baldwin (Constitution Party) who has received Ron Paul's endorsement. Thank you, YouTube!



Also, on Sunday November 2, FreeAndEqual.org will host the vice presidential debate for the third parties at 6 PM Pacific time. The participants scheduled are Darrell Castle (Constitution Party), Matt Gonzalez (Independent, and Nader's running mate), and Wayne Allyn Root (Libertarian Party). It seems to be little late in the game for them to be holding a debate, but at least they are holding one.

It's kind of interesting that they are doing this. YouTube wasn't around back in 2004, and while internet video technology was around, it wasn't in the state it was in, or very user-friendly or accessible. These kind of internet debates are probably the best chance there is of actually getting a third party voice heard. A good example being the Nader vs. Baldwin debate posted above. Four years ago, if you missed it, were probably SOL. Could it change the landscape? Probably not this year, but if enough word gets out, there could be a more significant impact in another four years. Watch the videos and you decide! And get the word out!
