The 2008 Presidential Campaign: On the Left, the Greens and the Nader Campaign
With the Democratic Party presidential contenders offering little more than tepid reforms on the margin of drug policy and the Republican nominee largely promising more of the same old drug war (look for an article next week on major party contender crime and drug policies), people seeking radical reforms in US drug policy are looking beyond the two major parties.

Editorial: Greening democracy
If American democracy were to submit to a checkup — blood pressure, cholesterol, weight — some troubling symptoms would be recorded on its chart. Topping the list is low voter participation.
