Unfortunately, as you well know, we did not have a presidential or vice-presidential candidate who was independently wealthy in 2004, as we did in 1980. If you know any such potential vice-presidential candidate to run with Michael Badnarik, please inform us as soon as possible. Given the mindset of the average American after 9/11 I doubt whether Ed Clark or anyone else would have done much better last year. The fact that Michael Badnarik did as well as he did is a strong indication of his leadership ability and an excellent reason for him to run again. Personally, I would like to see him sacrifice his life and run four or five more times as Norman Thomas did in the '30s and '40s so that he could gain sufficient name recognition to break the blackout which our enemy, the establishment media, has imposed on us.
