Cynthia McKinney 08`
Cynthia McKinney spoke truth to power. She Knows.
Fuck the election machines and the people that put them there. She didnt lose. No fucking way.

An extraordinary speech presented by Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_QGiEN9VWI&eurl=

Included is a clip of Mario Savio's fiery, "gears of the machine" speech he delivered at Berkeley.
The only way out of this now is US!!!

1. She lost handily.
And for all her screams of voter fraud and how they were going to contest the election, there hasn't been a peep about actually correcting the issue.

Its much better for her politically to simply claim fraud whether it existed or not.

Which is why I know she will be back and likely run again in 2008.

2. As an aside, regarding what Cynthia said
Edited on Tue Feb-06-07 04:07 PM by Greeby
Is it really true about Bobby considering King to be his running mate? Or has it just been wishful thinking all these years?

3. What's the chances of
her running for the Presidency? And maybe getting the VP nod? How's about a Hillary/McKinney ticket?

5. Oh yeah, and it was all voting machines...
The fact that she's refused to denounce the anti-Semitic comments her father made the first time the voters bounced her out of office, and the fact that she assaulted a uniformed police officer had NOTHING to do with it, right? I call BS. She lost, bigtime, because she DESERVED to lose. Hank Johnson is a much better representative of the people of that district.
