i don’t care if you’re republican or democrat, you need to check out dean barkley for the MN senate race. just go to his website and read up on his issues.

he’s running under the independent party, but he’s more of a libertarian than anything, which in my mind, brings together the best of both major parties: being fiscally responsible, while also being socially responsible and preserving personal rights. here’s some highlights of the issues:
• pro gun ownership
• rethinking the drinking age
• putting a spending freeze on the government
• expanding alternative energy
• letting iraq take charge of its own country and focusing on finding osama bin laden (who? haha)

don’t just vote down the party line; be an independent, informed voter. i have been known to vote for republicans and independents as well as democrats. if i can do it, so can you.
