I'm with you. We totally need Cynthia McKinney to be running. If Obama's running, we need a woman to drain off the feminist vote. If Clinton's running, we need an African American to drain off the black vote. If they don't have an alternative, they might be willing to ignore the attacks on their race/ gender. Cynthia would get most of the white/ male/ absurd votes that Nader would get anyway, perhaps with a few more, since you get to be even more purely progressive if you vote for a black female green than if you go for an old white guy.
The one really big bit of good news here is that perhaps the media might cover the Green primary if he makes a go of it. That said, I'm not sure how they choose their candidates. Still, however it happens, go Cynthia! If you punch any policemen in the near future, please have a decent excuse!
