Tired of seeing all the Ron Paul fans always posting every little thing the Libertarians are up to on every message forum on the Internet, so here's a post from the opposite spectrum: http://news.yahoo.com/mass-doctor-wins-green-party-nomination-042321582.html

BALTIMORE (AP) – A doctor who ran against Mitt Romney forMassachusetts governor a decade ago won the chance to challenge him again on Saturday, this time as the Green Party's presidential nominee.

Personally, I could care less how much of a chance she stands. I've only known of one Green Party politician who was ever voted into office and that was as mayor of a tiny little "artsy" college town on the East Coast. I'm still more than happy to vote for a person that represents the US on platforms the rest of the civilized world already follows - single payer healthcare, "green" energy, climate change IS real, etc.
