In the upcoming democratic primary (2004) ...

BIG AL NEEDS OUR HELP! - Register as a democrat and vote for Crazy Al!

Rev. Al Sharpton is officially running for president in 2004.

"I think we need to look at running a black in the primary. I have said I would be available to do it.

Sharpton said the idea came to him while he sat under a tree in Sudan, which he visited in April 2001 on a fact-finding tour about slavery.

Assume GW has the Republican nomination sewn up. Its time for all good republicans, libertarians, and independents to stand up and be counted. Lets take a page from Sen. McCain’s play book. Prior to the 2004 democratic presidential primary in your state, re-register as a democrat and vote for Al Sharpton!

Wouldn’t it be great if Crazy Al won! At the very least, lets ensure he gets Friday night prime time speaking rights at the 2004 nationally televised democratic convention. You gotta love it. Line up, sign up, and send this to all your like-minded friends.

Anyone need a bumper sticker or button?

Anyone know where I can get a yard sign?

I am already awaiting primary day here in Georgia so I can return the favor the Dems did for John McCain in Michigan, etc. in 2000.

No need to switch party here. Just request a Dem ballot that day.

The only deterrent might be a competitive Senatorial primary on the Rep. side.

I think the Dems already have a plan to deal with big Al. Carol Mosley Braun, the corrupt and moronic former Senator from Illinois, will be trotted out by the Dem establishment as a much more reasonable alternative black candidate in order to split the black vote and thus reduce big Al's chance of making the convention even more of a circus than it will already be. Assuming W's lack of any serious opposition in the primaries, it would be nice payback if Republican crossovers put Sharpton over the top in the Michigan primary.

To: schaketo; All
do you think that possibly the ruling that candidates running for office can use campaign funds to pay themselves the salary of the office during the campaign may have something to do with the large number of Dem candidates this year ?

Does anyone know... are delegates to the Dem Convention elected on a "winner take all" basis, or proportionally, for a given primary? I honestly can't see Crazy Al coming close to a majority in any primary, but with so many candidates, if no clear leader emerges early in the primaries, it seems possible he could win, say, the SC Dem Primary with 25% of the vote. Would he capture all the SC delegates in such a scenario?

No way Al can win the nomination no matter how the rules are set up, but he could sure make things interesting... he could maneuver his way into participation in every Dem debate (unlike most others, he won't drop out after he finishes 5th or 6th in a couple of primaries), or into a prime-time speech at the Convention, and generally wreak havoc and embarrassment. What a shame that'd be... It would be especially interesting if we have the first "open convention" -- that is, no candidate locking up a majority -- in decades. Normally, I wouldn't be inclined to tune in, but THAT could be entertaining... I might be tempted to pour myself an adult beverage, make a batch of popcorn, and watch.

Al Sharpton, he's our man!
If he can't throw the election,
Nobody can.
