McKinney-Clemente Campaign Welcomes Chomsky's Support

Cynthia McKinney, in a prepared statement, today expressed her
appreciation for the support of Professor Noam Chomsky, noted linguist
tenured at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In private
emails with campaign supporters this week, the respected social critic
noted that he had voted Green in 2004 and would be voting for McKinney
next Tuesday, as well. "I find it very gratifying that our campaign
has garnered the support and vote of such an imminent thinker and
noted critic of our nation's foreign policy," said Ms. McKinney, Green
Party nominee for President of the United States. "I share Professor
Chomsky's analysis that our vote is best invested in building an
institution which will survive the close of the polls next Tuesday."

Holloween: Canvassing your neighbors for Candy and Votes

It is Halloween -- when all of the ghouls and goblins are about --
almost as scary as another Presidential administration that would work
against the best interests of the people!

On no other night of the year do so many people happily invite their
neighbors to their homes; what better time to do some campaigning?

We urge all supporters of the Power to the People Campaign, as you
accompany your children in their door-to-door canvas of your
neighborhood for candy, to please take this opportunity to also spread
the good news about our candidates.

Please head to our website for literature suitable for download and
local duplication which you can share with your neighbors.

Take to the streets with Spider-Man and Frankenstein and offer your
neighbors a real choice for their consideration in next Tuesday's
election.

New Literature Just In Time

With our appreciation to Marshall Sanders, a Green Party member in
Oakland California we are pleased to offer a new literature piece just
in time for our 11th Hour GOTV visibility efforts. Its called
RealChange, and offers eight affordable pieces for each sheet printed.
Please use it as you canvas your neighborhood Friday night with your
kids for candy and votes.

Cynthia McKinney Willing to Debate All Candidates

Rep. Cynthia McKinney wants to clarify that she is ready and willing
to debate all other presidential candidates in the 2008 race. She has
already been in debates with independent candidate Ralph Nader twice,
and has attended a debate online at which all other candidates failed
to appear despite ample notice. She has been consistently excluded
from any debate involving Republican and Democratic nominees for
president, despite calls for inclusion. Rosa Clemente, her vice-
presidential candidate, is similarly willing to debate any other vice-
presidential nominee.

In the recent period, associates from other campaigns have been
organizing and calling for multi-candidate debates on short notice,
without full consultation on date, time, place and ground rules,
making it difficult to participate. Today's independent candidate
debate, originally scheduled for Cincinnati, Ohio and moved to a
Cleveland, Ohio venue, conflicted with her campaign travel plans in
other states. Despite this, McKinney attempted to participate by
remote feed, webcam or satellite signal to no avail - the organizers
were unable to accommodate any option and apparently at least one
other candidate did not agree to include her in tonight's event.

McKinney and Clemente would like to issue a challenge to all other
candidates to organize a debate with pre-consensus on ground rules,
date and time before the election, either at a mutually agreed
physical location or with multiple remote feeds, conducted by any
organization or media outlet that is non-partisan and not tied to a
particular campaign. In the coming period she will be in Texas and
California.

Your support is Still Needed

Aside from any activity post election fighting another anticipated
election theft, we're still scrambling to meet our expenses through
the 4th and complete this campaign in the black. Your financial
support makes that possible. If you have not yet contributed to this
campaign, there is no time like the present to step up and do so.
