News Release

The Green Party of Tennessee calls on all those dissatisfied with the corporate two-party duopoly to come out and support John Miglietta for Congress (5th district) and Howard Switzer for Governor. Both Miglietta and Switzer are veterans of previous campaigns and hope to use their experience to run more effective campaigns. In particular, both will be making greater use of social networking sites to reach out to voters.

Green Party of Tennessee:

Welcome to the GP-TN website. We're glad you're here.

Our current government is not working for the people or the planet. The falling dollar, peak oil, the war in Iraq are all taking their toll on the citizens of this country. Neither the Democratic nor the Republican Parties can offer a way to recovery because they are beholden to the corporate money that supports them and the system of extraction that has set the planet on a precipitous path. This is the role the Green Party has undertaken, to work for regeneration of our economy, our ecology and our communities.

Direct Democracy is a way of governing requiring citizen involvement. The Green Party is dedicated to "Direct Democracy" or "Grassroots Democracy". As citizen's we each have a role a play in our governance. The Green Party of TN offers a non-corporate political party working for policy that reflects our 10 Key Values.

If you agree with the views of the Green Party we encourage you to participate on a civic level and run for office. The Green Party actively seeks candidates. When you are ready to run please let us know.

There are many ways to participate in the electoral process other than running for office. All candidates need support systems and there are many tasks to do. Knowledge in areas of finance, organization, publicity/marketing and others are all needed.

We need YOU. It's your country, it's your future, actively be a part of it. Join the Green Party and work for Peace, Justice, Ecological Wisdom and Grassroots Democracy.

"The Green Party is not the alternative, it's the imperative!"
