You can hardly hold membership in the Resource Development Council and pretend you have the interests of the Alaska people in mind, or our land, our air, our wildlife, our water, ad infinitum.<br /><br />No, if you're a member of the RDC, your stance is in opposition to the best interests of Alaska and Alaskans. If you're a member of the RDC, you work for the interests of the likes of Exxon, Anglo American, and the rest of the major multinationals looking to rake off our resources for their profits.<br /><br />Denise should be put on the spot, soon and in a very public manner.<br /><br />With an RDC member elected to office, the RDC would have their voice being advocated from with the government that is supposed to watch-dog those multi-national corporate interests.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />freeper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-85514044375948120982010-04-23T21:49:06.761-08:002010-04-23T21:49:06.761-08:00Jim's neurosis is getting worse by the minute....Jim's neurosis is getting worse by the minute.<br /><br />...even with as little grasp of reality he has, he's discovered how to copy and paste.<br /><br />I bet he's proud of himself, must have been a major accomplishment.<br /><br />freeper,<br /><br />..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-87398522598372293982010-04-23T16:45:58.724-08:002010-04-23T16:45:58.724-08:00Beware of "Freeper" who has often posted...Beware of "Freeper" who has often posted here and is now posting anonymously:<br /><br />From Wikipedia:<br /><br />"Free Republic is a moderated Internet forum, activist, and chat site for self-described conservatives, primarily within the United States.[1] It presents articles and comments posted pseudonymously by registered members, known as "Freepers"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-37550788298920026012010-04-23T15:29:41.305-08:002010-04-23T15:29:41.305-08:00right here jim,

Governor were 'independent' ?<br /><br />They are somewhat separated in the primaries, but there's nothing 'non-partisan' about that separation.<br /><br />Governor candidates and lt. governor candidates run on separate tickets in the primary and then the party winners are paired for the general election.<br /><br />That guarantees one thing and allows for one other possibility, in the former, or the guaranteed part, the people get to pick general election candidates, instead of the governor being able to choose. The possibility arises that, though they are from the same 'party', they may not necessarily be of the same mind, or necessarily political allies outside of party designation.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Candidates, parties, individuals, or whomever can and do 'endorse' anyone they want to.<br /><br /><br /><br />What are you implying by asking 'what's up with that' ?<br /><br />It's not new... 5 states elect their governors and lt. governors in the same way.<br /><br />Other states do things in a variety of ways.<br /><br />5 states do not have a lieutenant governor. <br /><br />18 states have separate elections for the governor and the lieutenant governor,( where you could have the governor and the lieutenant governor being from different parties.) <br /><br />2 states have the State Senate appoint the lieutenant governor.<br /><br /><br />20 states have the governor and lieutenant governor run together on the same ticket, just like the presidential elections are run, with the governor choosing his running mate.<br /><br />..<br /><br />The problem with our system is closed primaries, and party switching during the vote.<br /><br />Open primaries still allow party switching, but it's tempered by the ability of all sides to vote switch, and not be closed off from the Repugnant ballot choice.<br /><br />We can end up with a 'popular' governor' and a feeble lt. governor.<br /><br />We all know the problem with that, the incompetent 'popular' governor could quit, leaving us with an equally incompetent or worse lt. governor moving up into the mansion and pretending to be a governor.<br /><br />With the closed primaries, and the unlimited number of 'candidates' that can declare without any test of party loyalty or adherence to party ideology, we can end up with 'candidates' running as one thing when they've no intention of representing the image they run under.<br /><br />With the high numbers of candidates in primaries and with the addition of several fringe parties, vote dilution becomes a root cause of much voter apathy.<br /><br />Who are you endorsing ?
