Ok.....Here it is. Cast your votes.
I added the extra names, besides POA and stonefruit to see if anyone else could possibly win.
If you're not interested, mention it here.
Peace.

Hey Karpo - since we forgot to nominate you, you get dibs on any cabinet position you want for the first two administrations.

I would rather be the ambassador to Kleptomania, a much maligned nation that is in need of my "scrounger" abilities.

I say vote we end the vote and move along. My meeting of the MA New Dems was pitiful. My first and only recruit was a no-show, and I need to concentrate on recruiting. I also added a few posts to my DU account but I still haven't posted enough to merit the ability to send private messages.
I figured out how to get enough dough together to get a few web pages, though. More on that when I tally it up.

As far as recruiting goes, I have a freind who is a borderline reep, but he's changing his mind. He'll probably show up and start chiming in on discussions.
If he does, and he says something someone does'nt agree with, let's try to make it a point not to beat him up and send him running. I don't want to alienate him just because he does'nt agree with everything we believe in here. I don't want to be like TSC and be the thought dictators.
Just a heads up to everyone.
Peace.

POA has captured 100% of the vote so far! Are there any other votes to be cast?
100% going once...
100% going twice...

I guess POA is the official GRAND POOHBAHHHHHH of the NDP. Congrats POA!
So tell us what you did, young Miss Calabi, to gain such esteemed notoriety in TSC. I'd be interested to know! Good job, by the way. ;D Peace.

Just one of those big bad hair days, you know ? But all's fine now. We all made up, had a peppermint and we all went our merry way.

I figured out how to get enough dough together to get a few web pages, though. More on that when I tally it up. How many posts do you need to make before you get the ability to send private messages? Saturday after next, there's a local peace and justice meeting and I'll go to that in order to see if I can find anyone who might be interested. I'm also investigating more local groups to see who would be amenable to our message, and I have a friend who I think, with some convincing, will probably join us.

It's going to be a hard road for us, but at the same time; there really is no better chance for this than the present. I can think of no time within my entire lifespan in which the bankruptcy of the two-party system has been more obvious, more clear, than it currently is now. It will be through our honesty, our compassion, and our intelligence, that we shall hopefully succeed in our common goals. So, since a principle that I think we value in common is accountability, when (or under what circumstances) do we want to set up to vote me out if I do a bad job?

Alright if I can't be National Coordinator, can I be Propogandist in Chief? Ideologue in Exile? Someone kind of like Chris Floyd of the Moscow Times? Man, he just laces into these BFEE et al ash holes with precision, force and gratifyingly, intensely value-laden language. If NDP could pass the hat and send me $400/month, I would happily write searing column after searing column. I'm also a filmmaker too with a digital camera and nonlinear editing capability. Alas, a fantasy. Limitless $$$ to grease the wheels of transnational corporate fascism and bake sales for schools and pennies for activist-dissidents. I've got a great URL appropriate to our mission - www.democracyunbound.com - i'm paid up through december. the hosting fee is only ~$100/year, not too bad. if anyone wants to take over as webmaster, email me. I'm toying very seriously w/the idea of exile and vagabondage and would hate to see such a great URL fizzle out.
