DUers looking for a progressive alternative to Joe Lieberman should consider sending a few bucks his way.

Dr. John Orman is a citizen activist and author who is a DEMOCRAT. He is the author of five books, including PRESIDENTIAL SECRECY AND DECEPTION; COMPARING PRESIDENTIAL BEHAVIOR; PRESIDENTIAL ACCOUNTABILITY; THE POLITICS OF ROCK MUSIC; and CELEBRITY POLITICS (with co-author Darrell West).

He was the Democratic candidate for U.S. House of Representatives in Connecticut's 4th Congressional District in 1984. His favorite moment was when President Ronald Reagan came to Fairfield to campaign against Dr. Orman. In 2000, Dr. Orman was the citizen activist from Trumbull, Connecticut, who challenged Joe Lieberman for running for two different national offices at the same time when he could only legally hold one of those jobs. After a month of official protests the Quinnipiac Poll showed 45% of Connecticut citizens agreed with Lieberman and 46% agreed with Orman’s position. Dr. Orman has taught at Fairfield University since 1978. He is a Professor of Politics and he has taught American Presidency; Congress; Parties, Groups, and Opinion; U.S. Public Policy; U.S. Foreign Policy; and the Politics of Popular Culture.

His comments about politics in America have been carried on ABC,BBC, CBS, CBC, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NBC, NPR, and other networks. His analysis of American politics often appears in national, state and local newspapers.

5. He's got to be better than Lieberman
Has Lieberman announced that he's running for re-election in '06 yet?
