We sell scooters manufactured by three different companies: Torker, Blauwerk and Diggler. They range in price and quality from entry level to professional. We sell the Chalo Sulky Uno and Chalo Sulky Duo, handcrafted by David Wilson Industries in Seattle, Washington. We test all these products with Daphne Lewis' dogs. The Chalo Sulkies are unique in that they use bicycle technology for ease of pulling and braking.

Our sales people are self-selected; they run dogs and want to see more dog drivers in their region.

The Green Party decision making body is the National Committee, composed of delegates from each accredited state party. State NC representatives and other committee participants are chosen by each state party.

The Green Party of the United States was formed in 2001 as a reincarnation of the older Association of State Green Parties (1996-2001). Our initial goal was to help existing state parties grow and to promote the formation of parties in all 51 states and colonies. Helping state parties is still our primary goal.

As the Green Party National Committee we will devote our attention to establishing a national Green presence in politics and policy debate while continuing to facilitate party growth and action at the state and local level.

Green Party growth has been rapid since our founding in 2001 and Green candidates are winning elections throughout the U.S. In 2004, the Green Party National Convention nominated David Cobb and Pat LaMarche for the Green Presidential ticket.

We are grassroots activists, environmentalists, advocates for social justice, nonviolent resisters and regular citizens who've had enough of corporate-dominated politics.

My “Real Story”

I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1954. My family lived in a tough part of Honolulu called Kalihi Valley. We weren’t rich, but I never felt poor-because my mother and father made many sacrifices for my sister and me. My mother was a housewife, and my father was, at various times, a fireman, real estate broker, state senator, and government official.

I attended Iolani School where I graduated in 1972. Iolani is not as well known as its rival, Punahou, but I got a fantastic and formative education there. After Iolani, I matriculated to Stanford University where I graduated in 1976. My major was psychology-which was the easiest major I could find.

After Stanford, I attended the law school at UC Davis because, like all Asian American parents, my folks wanted me to be a “doctor, lawyer, or dentist.” I only lasted one week because I couldn’t deal with the law school teachers telling me that I was crap and that they were going to remake me.

Nader has run for President 5 times (in 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004 and 2008). In 1992 he ran as a write-in in both the New Hampshire Republican and Democratic primaries, and other primaries. In 1996 and 2000, he was the nominee of the Green Party; in 2004, he ran as an independent, but was also endorsed by the Reform Party. His campaigns have been controversial, with his role in the 2000 election in particular being subject to much debate. Many Democrats accuse Nader of siphoning Democratic votes in key states that potentially cost Al Gore the Presidency, while Nader himself has said that the Democrats are to blame for their failure to defeat George W. Bush that year. On February 24, 2008, he announced on NBC's Meet The Press that he is campaigning for the presidency in 2008.

ARTIST SUBMISSIONS - PLEASE- Read This Before You Send In Your CD/Press Kit

Dear Fellow Artists,

I created the live audience, multi-media event of WOODSONGS on the belief that grassroots artists, collectively, had an audience bigger than Garth Brooks and Bruce Springsteen. Think of it - thousands of musicians, songwriters, bands and folkies travel the earth searching for their audience, making a living and selling their CD's. The only thing missing was a global stage that would introduce these hard working artists to the huge audience that was obviously supporting all of them. Woodsongs exists on the principal that the audience cares. The audience is interested. And the audience will always respond to good art.

Artists are chosen to appear on our stage are selected because they are good. End of story. Fame, commercial success or lack there-of, who you know, who you opened for, whether you are on a label or are releasing your own CD, what famous artist used the same mixing board you recorded your latest CD on and who manages you means NOTHING.

I say it often on the show and I mean it, "You don't have to be Famous to be on WoodSongs . . . you have to be Good!"

Keep in mind that WoodSongs is NOT a concert. Several hundred people are in our theatre to WATCH a radio show get produced. The show is equally divided between two artists, giving each artist three on-air song performances. Song lengths, to be fair, need to be about 3 1/2 minutes long. WoodSongs is an acoustic performance program mixed with conversation. BILLBOARD MAGAZINE described the show as "A Prairie Home Companion meets Conan O'Brien." If you are not familiar with our show, we encourage you to visit our archives and listen to an on-line broadcast before submitting.

One more thing: We don't pay you anything.

I don't get a penny for this. Our chief engineer Kevin Johnson, the 32 member WoodSongs Crew and the cyber-dude who built this website aren't paid anything either. A local hotel will put you up for free, local restaurants will feed you and our show goes out free-of-charge to radio. You can sell your CDs to the audience after the show and we will even help you do that. Most importantly, however, you will be introducing your music and your art to over 1,100,000 radio listeners on 460+ radio stations in many countries... plus global internet, full online archiving, podcasting and now national television.

The WOODSONGS OLD TIME RADIO HOUR is a global, artist-driven coffeehouse that is reaching out to the HUGE grassroots music audience.

And we are very hopeful you can be part of it!
