Some Excellent PROGRESSIVE(!) Sites

[JasonBerry]

Thought I would take a minute and share a few links to some good - PROGRESSIVE - sites. No limousine liberals in this bunch. These are all great sources of information from PROGRESSIVE thinkers in the tradition of Fightin' Bob La Follette...generally considered the founder of modern-day PROGRESSIVISM. Here we go!

A PROGRESSIVE Running For President of the United States
http://www.kucinich.us/

All of these come from a traditionally PROGRESSIVE (not liberal) point-of-view. No, it's not a matter of "definition." It really does mean something to be a PROGRESSIVE. When asked by a person in a Q&A session what one issue separates PROGRESSIVES from liberals, Jim Hightower answered without hesitation: NAFTA. Most would think that is a good answer. Why? NAFTA flies in the face of the BEDROCK of PROGRESSIVE thought: Organized Labor and populist economics.

ENJOY!

3. Pacifica.org

www.pacifica.org

stations and affiliates that broadcast Democracynow and many

other progressive shows

[JasonBerry]

17. Thanks! Here's another Pacifica link...

After a rough time, Pacifica needs our support again. Still the best news on the radio! Here is KPFA's (the Pacifica flagship) web site, which has a lot more content (current and archived) than the main Pacifica site does.

http://www.kpfa.org/

I think they are trying to let the individual stations handle the programming content on their own sites. I'm glad you mentioned this.
