Citizen Kate dispels unusual voting myths to get people to register to vote.
Citizen Kate finds the key to peace at a Libertarian Pot and Tea party. I went to my first ever pot and tea party sponsored by the Marijuana Project at the Libertarian National Convention in Denver. I was looking for peace. And there's nothing more peaceful than weed. Just ask the Native Americans. They passed around the pipe to stop war. So I ate everything looking for "peace". I wonder if all Libertarian candidates enjoy the peace weed? Can you imagine Bob Barr smoking from the peace pipe? Or Mike Gravel? Or Lady Liberty? Think about it. If we all smoked weed, soldiers in Iraq would be laughing and hugging each other. Peace and hugs. Note to self: We need to stop all wars, including the war on drugs. Even Homeland Security knows that. Peace and hugs.
Citizen Kate finally finds the real party and learns what it takes to be a Libertarian. I was so excited to go to the Libertarian National Convention in Denver. It was liberating compared to some of the other political parties I've been too. Everyone was excited to talk to me. So much so that I spoke with almost every Libertarian Presidential Candidate directly, including the official Libertarian Presidential candidate, Bob Barr, his running mate, Wayne Allyn Root, and the Democratic turned Libertarian candidate, Mike Gravel. I learned firsthand that Libertarians stand for anything to do with personal freedom and less government. It's like they want to elect themselves out of a job eventually, and live a free and prosperous life. What's not to like about Libertarians? They love peace, drugs and rock 'n roll, which of course makes them the best party to go to. Note to self: Become a Libertarian, to say and do whatever you want. Vote Libertarian to "help the other guy win".
Wow, raising money is fun, especially when it's mixed with Obamatinis and McCain Old Fashioned's.
Citizen Kate meets up with some A-list Politicians, including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain, at the Libertarian National Convention in Denver. I'm so excited. I went to my first big Libertarian event--a masquerade ball. I dressed as the future Lady Liberty. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning for...freedom. The night was a total blast. Libertarians really know how to party. Wearing masks allows you to be free to say what you want any old time. I poured drinks for freedom, met Presidential elect Bob Barr, and hung with some of this nation's forefathers like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. I can't believe it! I actually spent most of my evening with Hillary Clinton. A lot of people don't know the real Hillary. But I do. I know that she'll always keep what's best for this nation in mind. And the woman can dance! She's smokin'. Note to self: If your party sucks, go to another. Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Peace and Freedom. You choose.
August 27th, 2008 - Citizen Kate discovered more unity that segragation at the Democratic National Convention after watching Hillary Clinton speak and cast her deciding vote. I can't believe it. Hillary Clinton did it. She united the party and cast her historic vote to elect Barack Obama. Note to self: We have to hug it out and come together.
August 25, 2008 - Citizen Kate discovers during an interview with Arianna Huffington and her Michelle Obama moment at the DNC that every great leading lady has her own style and failure is simply a stepping stone. My first day at the Democratic National Convention was amazing. I went to 2008 Future Frontrunner event sponsored by Lifetime, CosmoGirl and Declare Yourself. They had so many amazing female leaders from politics speaking candidly and giving direction to young women to help shape the next generation of female great leaders. I actually had the opportunity to meet up with Arianna Huffington, the founder of the Huffington Post, and truly inspirational speaker. I finished the night attending Michelle Obama's speech. The 2008 Democratic National Convention is all about female power, for today, at least. Note to self: Every female leader has her own style. Find yours and embrace it.
August 28, 2008 -- Citizen Kate protests with anarchists at the Democratic National Convention and uncovers what it's like to live in a police state. I ran into a group of peaceful protesters in the park near the Denver capital at the Democratic National Convention. We are political prisoners in a police state and we need to vote for the next great leader to help change that. The protesters voiced their opinion of the candidates and the true needs of our world. I realized that politics is not about the glitz or the glamour. It's about the people. Note to self: If you don't like the choices for president, you can write in none of the above.

Citizen Kate: Big Media = Tent City
Citizen Kate tries to fit in with the “Big Media” at the Democratic National Convention, but some big time reporters from The Daily Show call her bluff. What a lot of people didn’t see on CNN, CSPAN or Fox News at the Democratic National Convention is the large number of tents surrounding the Pepsi Center. These tents were set up primarily for the “big media”. I wanted to see how the other half lives, so I ventured off to the Big Media Tent City in search of free swag and to fit in. I found the Daily Show RV and thought that Jon Stewart was sleeping there. Unfortunately, they were too big time for this citizen journalist. I did find free oxygen. Why would anyone ever pay for oxygen? Shouldn’t it always be free. I spent time with a journalist form ABC News. He said that I should check out “tent city”. But he was referring to the blogger’s Big Tent. Note to self: Big media don’t always get the big perks in politics, but they do get access to the inside.
