Green Parties in the United States have been forming since the 1980s to create an independent political movement to promote ecological wisdom, social justice, grassroots democracy and non-violence. The Green Party promotes these issues through electing candidates, initiatives and referendums, promoting legislation and through community projects. The Green Party of Minnesota was formed in 1994 by the Minnesota Greens C onfederation, and has been running candidates for state and local offices since 1996. This year we are running Ralph Nader and Winona LaDuke for president and vice president. Come find out more about this growing new political party, our candidates, and how you can get involved. -- Holle Brian Green Party candidate for state representative, District 62B (612) 822-6593 www.jimn.org/hollebrian --- Prepared and paid for by Neighbors for Holle Brian 3953 12th Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55407 Betsy Barnum, treasurer

This may be an ignorant question, but what is so terrible about the census bureau wanting to drop the "St. Paul" from their designation of the "Minneapolis-St. Paul area"? It's just a name, isn't it? Many on this list have protested about unequal treatment amongst cities and suburbs, and perhaps government could capture many economies of scale if we moved to a "regional government". Are there no merits to this idea at all? I realize that the census bureau's change in how it designates the area wouldn't change anything "real", but maybe calling the Twin Cities metro area by the name "Minneapolis" would give the "engine of the regional economy" the recognition it deserves. Please hold your cries of protest about the civic pride and history, hurt feelings, etc. caused by using the name of one city versus another's. Sure there would be some pain, I'm thinking it might be fun to play through a "what if" discussion about any advantages. (Like eliminating one bureaucracy? That's bound to save some money over the long haul and after the initial costs of change over).
