Gordon Clark, Green Party candidate for Maryland’s 8th Congressional District, will be our guest on Oct 18. Mr. Clark is a citizen-politician—a lifelong activist, advocate and community organizer for peace, social justice and the environment who is now running to make a difference in government. He has many accomplishments including: Founding in 1984 the Doylestown (PA) Peace Force, a community organization combating the nuclear war fighting policies of the Reagan Administration, Founding in 2002 the Iraq Pledge of Resistance (now the National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance), a national non-profit network devoted to using the nonviolent methods of Gandhi and King to oppose the war in Iraq. Mr. Clark is proud to serve his community and country. He looks forward to continuing this history of service in the U.S. House of Representatives. Gordon is running as a Green, a party whose principles are fundamentally aligned with what most Americans want and believe we need to get our country back on the right track.

Saturday, October 11 is an open forum on the elections, the presidential debates, and the political process in general. We'll discuss whether the debates mean anything. We'll discuss how badly McCain seems to be doing and why. We'll talk about the present and future relevance of third parties, and preview some of the arguments Gary and Matt will make in their new book. In recognition of six fun, groundbreaking months on internet radio, a crazy, roller coaster ride of interviewing guests across the progressive spectrum--guests like Cynthia McKinney, Brian Moore, Damon Linker, Jeff Key, Rosa Clemente, Gordon Clark, Adam Kokesh, Marjorie Cohn, Sam Pizzigati, Chris Rothfuss, Al Campbell, Jerry White, and more.
