Cynthia: I love you Sister! You keep doing what you are doing and fight the good fight. You have my vote.

Whether or not you become the national Green Party candidate, your video (with some minor editing) should be the recruiting and welcome video for the Green Party nationwide!

Would love to see a three-way, nationally-televised presidential debate between Green Candidate Cynthia McKinney, Republican Candidate Ron Paul, and Democratic Candidate Dennis Kucinich.

How 'bout contacting their campaigns to see if they'd go for it?

I'm excited to hear that Cynthia has decided to run for President as a Green. I heard Cynthia speak in Tucson, AZ and I was very impressed. I am excited that the Greens have such a knowledgeable, authentic, passionate, and conscious candidate running for the party's nomination. I am confident that Cynthia will secure the party's nomination and I look forward to supporting her during her campaign.

Dear Cynthia, This is a day we've been waiting for! Yours is a clear call to conscience. I hope you go all the way!

Over the years, I can’t count the number of times when my wife and I would be watching some more bad news coming out of our nation’s Capitol and watching the disappointing performance of many of our so-called representatives in Congress and saying to ourselves, “Well at least Cynthia McKinney is in there fighting the good fight.” And I can’t count the number of times when I’ve sighed, and said, “Boy I sure wish Cynthia McKinney would join the Green Party!”

Now she has come to do that – and in doing so, she has found her true political home, a place where she and her politics will be appreciated. I am gratified and elated that she has seen fit to join us. For so many years, she has been fighting for us. Now I am ready to fight for her – and I appeal to Illinois Greens and the voters of Illinois to join me in the fight to get her elected as our next President of the United States.

Cynthia brings a new dimension to the Green Party -- a proven track record of solid progressive leadership in the struggles for democratic empowerment, civil rights and liberties, for labor, for peace, for health care, for social justice, for the environment. Just like she has stated about the Green Party, she, too, has "walked the talk." Like the rest of us, she is no aloof "politician"; she is a fearless fighter for the people.

I love Ralph Nader and I love David Cobb. But Cynthia McKinney brings us the name recognition and credentials of a Nader -- plus actual experience in government -- and adds to that the same commitment to building this party that we saw with David Cobb (but was somewhat lacking in Nader, as we saw in 04).

This is a great day for the Green Party. Let's roll up our sleeves, build this campaign, build this Party -- and elect a President who stands with the people!

It's great to finally see that Cynthia has announced her candidacy! I've been looking forward to this for a long time and the time has finally come! I wish her the best of luck and will do my best to get the support out for her run.

I'm actually a Ron Paul supporter and was recently thinking "I hope Ron gets the republican nomination and runs with Cynthia McKinney."

I'm glad you are running. It lets some of my American pride shine through to know that there is someone else who has a good heart and has not been purchased by corporate interests fighting for this country at a presidential level.

Keep bringing the real issues in this country to the forefront of the media and the publics eye and good luck with your campaign. Good luck getting on the ballots too. I'll help if I can :)

I couldn't be more excited. Fight the good fight, Cynthia.

Get on with the debates,I can't wait.
The world needs to hear everthing you have to say.

When you are elected, maybe we can get your name added to the Atlanta airport,
McKinney-Hartsfield-Jackson international.

I can see it now.

Let's get it on.

Best speach by a Green ever!!

Wonderful announcement!

Peace and Joy in the Moment,
