John Stossell, Mary Ruwart, Karen Kwiatkowski, Katherine Albrect maybe Nader or McKinney. Ask Gravel too. Richard Winger above, not my cellie Rickey! & NOT RON PAUL.

First polling. Then follow up polling. The polling should increase because there is a vast pool of potential voters. Then an all-out campaign to publicize the Strategy, rationale/theory directly to the voters, it could work. Esp. in a place like NYC. Urbane, sophisticated, rich, everybody plugged in to cellphones & internet, educated etc. Skyler, if several notable people say, you, me, Richard Winger etc. and someone with some name recognition/celebrity, were to go to NYC & hold a press conference & said we’re going to try this strategy so that either the Green or the Libertarian wins, that would get a LOT of publicity.

However, even if Reverend Billy were to endorse this strategy within the remaining month of this campaign, it would not generate the waves or the publicity to positively impact his campaign, unless he's already within centimeters of victory. Your strategy is the sort of thing which need be introduced over a period of years, not weeks, months, or especially days. Honestly, you have the ability to start to institute such a strategy now, so that these sorts of candidates do win in the future. And the jumping off point for your theory is absolutely not IPR, no matter how relevant the discussions here may be. Robert,
