It seems to have been forgotten that there was also another 
gubernatorial candidate at Gay Pride--Ken Pentel from the Green Party. 
 Sadly, he is not seen as a viable candidate.  From all I've heard/seen 
in the news, or heard from others, is that we only have three parties 
running.  Does that mean the Greens are going to continue to be shut 
out?  I happened to talk with Roger Moe at Pride, and told him I was 
seriously considering voting for Ken (which I still am).  Basically he 
told me was that a vote for the Greens was a vote for the Republican 
Party, which I believe is utter nonsense.  No one deserves my vote just 
because this "other" party has a chance of getting into office.  I say 
open up the debates to all the parties, and let people see all the 
choices out there for governor.  I believe this will be the true test of 
who is the most qualified to govern our state.
