Mike Gravel (Former Alaskan Senator) is running for President of these United States and needs your help!!!! If you haven't already heard of him...then you're already behind on the latest in government politics!!!! There are few in number who will simply "tell it like it is" with regards to giving the people the low-down on what's REALLY goin' on in Washington...Presently, Mike is being "censored" and not given the right to voice his opinions and stand for the people of this country!!!(Banned From Attending Democratic Presidential Debates) That would be considered a direct assault on the "Right To Free Speech" in what we the people believe to be a "Free Democratic Society"!!! Please join the "Fight For Democracy" and the Man who can help set us "All" free from the "Oppression" of the "Political Machine"!!! VOTE MIKE GRAVEL 2008!!!
HEY FOLKS!!! MIKES GOT HISTORY...HE'S BEEN THERE!!!! (READ THIS BIO EXCERPT...SEE REST UNDER BLOGS)
Mike Gravel served in the Alaska House of Representatives from 1963-66, and as Speaker from 1965-66. He then represented Alaska in the U.S. Senate from 1969-81. He served on the Finance, Interior, and Environmental and Public Works committees, chairing the Energy, Water Resources, Buildings and Grounds, and Environmental Pollution subcommittees.
In 1971, he waged a successful one-man filibuster for five months that forced the Nixon administration to cut a deal, effectively ending the draft in the United States. He is most prominently known for his release of the Pentagon Papers, the secret official study that revealed the lies and manipulations of successive U.S. administrations that misled the country into the Vietnam War. After the New York Times published portions of the leaked study, the Nixon administration moved to block any further publication of information and to punish any newspaper publisher who revealed the contents.
From the floor of the senate, Gravel (a junior senator at the time) insisted that his constituents had a right to know the truth behind the war and proceeded to read 4,100 pages of the 7,000 page document into the senate record. The Supreme Court ultimately ruled that Senator Gravel did not have the right and responsibility to share official documents with his constituents.
He then published The Senator Gravel Edition, The Pentagon Papers, Beacon Press (1971). This publication resulted in litigation, Gravel v. U.S., resulting in a landmark Supreme Court decision (No. 71-1017-1026) relative to the Speech and Debate Clause (Article 1, Section 6) of the United States Constitution.

Hello. First we want to say thank you for your support and awareness on this very important issue for it is an issue that touches and affects each one of us. You will be hearing much more from us as we move forward with this campaign. We are currently prioritizing the need for healthcare insurance for the women and children of America. We are reaching out to the community, asking that the community as well, communicate this issue of healthcare for women and children to everyone that they feel understands the issue and priority of healthcare for women and children. We ask that individuals and communities get involved to support comprehensive healthcare for women and children. We encourage everyone to communicate to the candidates running for national office (Congress and the White House) that we will support and vote for a common sense plan for national healthcare insurance for the women and children of America. In support of a coherent plan. It is time think clearly!
