meeting?<br><br>DR: The budget. It's not necessarily fascinating but
passing a budget has to be done. We've been meeting with residents to try
and figure out what people really want. I'm working with staff to look at
sustainability issues. We have people scouring the streets</font></font></font></div><div><font color="#003300" face="Arial"><font color="#003300" face="Arial" size="2"><font size="3"> of Takoma Park
looking for ways to save energy. <br><br>GL: What made you decide to run
for City Council?<br><br>DR: I'd done a lot things - served on committees, local
activism, worked with Takoma Park businesspeople. I got to know a lot of
people. I wanted to find a way to hear all sides on important issues, not
just my own side. <br><br>GL: What do you do professionally and how did it
help you run for </font></font><font color="#003300"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><font size="3">office?<br><br>DR: I followed an entrepreneurial path. I've been a
computer programmer and business manager for many years. I sold my
computer programming business to my employees and built a small office
building. It's definitely a green building - it's as low-impact as I could
make it. I was exposed to the realities of government while organizing the
<br>construction of the building. I had to work through probably 25
different bureaucracies. <br><br>GL: Tell us a little bit about your
campaign.<br><br>DR: I had a lot of help from Greens, friends, and
acquaintances. My ward is small - only about 3,000 people - and I was able
to knock on every door. I held a number of coffees and meetings a few
times a week. Raising about $2,000 was enough to send a mailing to every
household and post yard signs. <br><br>Two years ago, Takoma Park
initiated Instant Runoff Voting (IRV) for city elections. Unfortunately,
none of the races in November had more than two candidates. I thought
about recruiting another candidate just so we could see IRV in
action. <br><br>GL: What has the
hardest part of the experience been?<br><br>DR: People put a lot of expectations
on you - some people project their own frustrations onto you. You have to
be realistic about responding to that. With city matters on my mind all
the time, sometimes my work suffers. My city council salary is $10,000 for
what is basically a half-time position. Some people believe that City
Council members ought to be willing to work for free. In some ways I
agree, but for people who have to make a living that would be hard. If
they had to do it for free, only wealthy people could afford to hold
office. That's not the Green
way. <br><br>Q: What advice do
you have for Greens thinking of running for office? <br><br>DR: Get
involved with community affairs. It need to be done - just do it.
Find a way to serve on committees as a volunteer, start something new in town,
and get to know as many people as you can. Push for change however you
can. Examine the budget. Try to understand people's motivations
for why they ask for things. People come to the council all the time with
problems they are dealing with. We try to point that person toward the
appropriate staff member to get things resolved. The question we ask is
"What can we do as a staff to make this person's life a little
easier?"</font></span></font></font></div><div> </div><div> </div><div><font color="#003300" face="Arial"> </font></div>

difference becomes obvious when reading the Platform. The Platform is a
dynamic document voted on at the quadrennial convention and reveals the
heart of the party including further illumination of the ten key
values. Efforts have been underway to revise and improve the 2004

following link: </font><a href="http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?key=159629638&url_num=3&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gp.org%2Fcommittees%2Fballot%2Ffundraising.shtml"><font size="3">http://www.gp.org/committees/ballot/fundraising.shtml</font></a><font color="#003300" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">.
Please examine and submit to your State Committees for further
consideration. All comments or objections can be submitted to the
Platform Committee until the final deadline of July 6th.</font></p>
<p><font color="#003300" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">There are 4 chapters to the Platform. One of the Platform
Committee's aims was to produce a tight Platform that candidates can
use as a handy reference, distribute at campaigns and give to other
Greens. Also, when Greens go to events, forums, protests, etc. they can
use the Platform to recruit new Greens. </font></p>
<p><font color="#003300" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Some suggested new additions to Platform 2008 are 1) Labor - Greens
support the EFCA (Employees Free Choice Act) bill - passing through the
Congress; 2) Foreign Affairs. - Military. See under Nuclear Weapons:
Greens strongly oppose research and development of the US RRW (Reliable
Replacement Warhead). In reality the RRW is a new nuclear weapon and
not in compliance with NPT; 3) Energy - (see in column 2 under Chapter
III) an upgraded as well as updated Energy plank; 4) Population - first
time we have had a plank on population other than Women's Right to
Choose. Some of the changes have already proven to be controversial so
please check on the platform amendments to make sure you and your State
can support the revisions.</font></p>

political committees to use their best effort to collect
and report the name, mailing address, occupation and
employer for each individual whose contributions exceed
$200 in a calendar year. Contributions form the

<p class="caption"><font color="#003300">*$36.00 is roughly equivalent to the
$1.00 paid for a one-year membership in the Populist
Party of the 1890s. The Populist Party was a
multiracial, progressive, grassroots third party of
working people which agitated for many popular
progressive reforms. The Green Party of the 21st century
continues the Populist's fight for citizen empowerment
and progressive reforms at all levels
today.</font></p>
