Fox News has learned that over the past few days Barr asked Sheehan to join her in an attempt to win the little-known Peace and Freedom Party's line on the California ballot. A party official told Fox News that Barr, who failed in her attempt earlier this year to win the Green Party nomination, has a "fairly high chance" of securing the spot after she again reached out to Peace and Freedom leaders several weeks ago. This was something her campaign explored months ago, but Green Party rules forbid crossover nominees so Barr abandoned that effort.Now that the Green Party process has played out, Barr renewed her interest with the Peace and Freedom folks and was told she needed a running mate.  Several days ago Cindy Sheehan, a party member who gained notoriety for her opposition to the Iraq war, agreed to join Barr.

Platform of the Peace and Freedom PartyThe Peace and Freedom Party, founded in 1967, is committed to socialism, democracy, ecology, feminism and racial equality. We represent the working class, those without capital in a capitalist society. We organize toward a world where cooperation replaces competition, a world where all people are well fed, clothed and housed; where all women and men have equal status; where all individuals may freely endeavor to fulfill their own talents and desires; a world of freedom and peace where every community retains its cultural integrity and lives with all others in harmony. We offer this summary of our immediate and long-range goals:

@FoFa: How can cooperation replace competition?? You have to DO something to have something to contribute in order to share it. That would be a nightmare if you ask me..If you know anything about human nature you will admit there is really no equality in it. People are so different, have different levels of work ethic and some have none. What happens when people start giving/contributing more than some other dead beat types?? CHAOS. LOL.Competition has it's draw backs  because, once again, people are flawed and manage to screw things up. BUT at least if you  get what you yourself earn then it's more fair that way. Reap what you sew.Things will never be equal or peaceful, but nice try. And the thought of Roseanne running anything more than a lemonade stand is just, well, SCARY.

@TheTruthHurts: Don't get me wrong, not advocating them in any way, just posting for information, but it almost sounded like it was better in the "funnies" thread Emoticon

Sounds like kindy, maybe even preschool.
As with just about every ideology, looks nice on paper but reality doesn't work that way.
 
Did anyone see her roast on Comedy Central? I'm a fan of her show. I liked it as a kid and revisiting it, it's even better than I remember. Funny stuff.
 
As for the Presidential bid, didn't some people here want more options Emoticon 4951
