Cindy Sheehan (for the first time to press) reveals intentions in forming a new political party, and reflects on her chances in unseating Nancy Pelosi in her race for Congress.

By Stephen Dohnberg

07/10/08 "Digital Journal" Anti War activist and challenger for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's Congressional Seat (CD 8, California), Cindy Sheehan has indicated her intention to launch a National political party after the U.S. Election of Nov. 4

Inspired in part by Mark Twain's involvement in The American Anti Imperialist League in reaction to the annexation of the Philippines by the United States in the late 19th Century, Sheehan said that the party will have a progressive platform and that after Nov. 4, "no matter what happens, we need to consolidate the energy against Imperialism and work on building another party movement."

While discussing a potential third party unity movement, Sheehan indicated that her own candidacy against House Speaker Pelosi has seen a broad coalition of support from Greens, independents, disillusioned Democrats such as herself (Sheehan left the Democratic Party in May of 2007 in response to the Democratic Party led House support for a funding bill to continue Iraq War funding), and Republicans, many of whom made up the traditional base of the GOP represented by Ron Paul.

Sheehan revealed that name of the new party would be The First Party. She reasoned "We don't want to do third-party politics which has a stigma in the United States" The First Party, with a populist-progressive agenda, will be the first party that "cares about the people, will work for the people, and will actually be a viable party."

"I have spoken to Green Party Presidential Candidate Cynthia McKinney and the Nader Campaign" and as disillusionment with the two party system increases, "this is the time to build on that energy."

Reflecting on her own chances in unseating incumbent Pelosi, she is pragmatic and acknowledges it has been "upward momentum, the only way we could go" but believes the success of the recent $700 billion bailout proposal could turn the tide in her favor. "When we're out on the streets, we have overwhelming support , especially since this bailout." Sheehan indicates that she notices that "people have a new rage and a new fire in their belly because of the corporate bailout. People are just so angry"

More importantly, some public opinions of her ability to lead have changed, and could indicate a tipping point for the Sheehan Campaign. She notes that responses have been favorable pointing to an email she recently received, "Two weeks ago I thought you should be shot, but now I'm awake, I'm not going to be a slave anymore, and I support what you do."

Sheehan believes that Members of Congress voting in favor of the bill did so at the peril of their own House seats and they have underestimated the voters. "I was watching the debates on the House floor and the Congress people kept saying 'my constituents are overwhelmingly against this but I have to do it because it's for the good of the country', what a load of crap!"

Wouldn't it be something if a courageous Gold Star Mother was the catalyst that turned America back from the brink?

And, let's not forget the invaluable contributions from Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski.

She told the very damaging truth about the workings of the Pentagon from an insider's perspective.

The fact that she is super intelligent and courageous (and a gifted wordsmith) and saw the shenanigans first hand make her bullet proof.

One critic was gnashing his teeth and out of desperation tried to claim that she wrote her expose on company time!

HAH!

Question: Why is it against the rules for govt employees to look out the windows in the morning?

Answer: because they won't have anything to do in the afternoon!

______________________

No, as long as women like Cindy Sheehan and Karen Kwiatkowski (and Cynthia McKinney) show a rare courage that few Americans possess these days there's no danger of women losing the franchise.

I was first exposed to this idea (repealing the 19th amendment) by my scruffy ol' tax reb cronies. But, they were coming from the view where the original constitution granted the vote only to white, male, Christian property owners. They weren't out to "get women" so much as to deny the mobs the power to vote themselves a piece of the treasury. And, men are as guilty as women when it comes to voting for reps and senators who promise increased entitlements and debt slavery for their own kids and grandchildren. (And, because women control most of the real estate and the wealth in the US it wouldn't do to allow women property owners to vote)

The repeal of the 17th amendment is also part of the plan to restore America.

The direct election of senators (instead of the state legislatures electing their states' two senators) was intended to put both houses in the hands of the greedy free lunchers. The founders knew that if the state houses elected senators then they wouldn't go to WASH and vote for higher taxes on their states, (before the 16th amendment removed the apportionment requirement) so it was important to send the right people to the senate back then. (Part of the checks and balances which made the document so brilliant and inspired, much of which has since been dismantled)

SO, the 16th amendment (the phony income tax and the removal of the apportionment mandate for direct taxes) and the 17th amendment (the voters not the state houses electing senators-pure democracy that collapsed all other empires that adopted it) ) laid the groundwork for America's collapse and deliverance into the greedy claws of internationalists-globalists who knew what they wanted and were willing to wait a century to make it happen.
