OK, how is David Clements involved in this now?!
- Posted to Slack —
Part of it is Frank is starting from scratch (sort of).
Part of it is Frank is trying to micro-manage things, which hardly ever goes well.

The same is true for Democrats.
What I find insane and idiotic are the people who want to give the Political Classholes more power and money even after knowing this.

Means pocketed something like 8,000 in donations from LPNM members, then gave it to Mike Castro (formerly of the NM Green Party), who was running the “Neighborhood Party,” which morphed into the “Independent Coalition Party.” Castro then converted that 8k from Federal Reserve Notes into pot and then smoked it. In 2003 Castro told me “Russell Means gave us your $8,000, so you might as well come over to us and take advantage of it.” In 2004, the State Party Secretary of the “Independent Coalition Party” basically said, “This is bullshit, Castro is a con artist, I’m out.”

Russell Means didn’t arrive on the LPNM scene until June 2001, when Joe Knight brought him in as a gubernatorial candidate.
- Posted to Slack —
June 2001 was the State Convention in Farmington, where Russell sought (and received) an early nomination to be the 2002 gubernatorial candidate.
FYI — Means croaked of throat cancer in 2007 on the Pine Ridge Reservation. This after he tried to open a liquor store on the reservation border, with the stated intent of using the profits from that liquor store to fund some sort of alcohol treatment program.

Whatever, Meathead.

Russell Means was supposed to be the 2002 gubernatorial candidate. When he bailed out on us for the “Neighborhood Party,” the top of the slate was empty.
- Posted to Slack —
*To the best of my knowledge,* Means never appeared on a ballot in New Mexico.
I think that at one point, he ran for tribal office on the Pine Ridge Reservation, and came in fifth or sixth place.

Actually cut spending below last year’s levels — NO MORE of this “we’re just slowing the growth of government” stuff.
Actually balance the budget. No more deficit spending PERIOD. If that means someone’s pet project or welfare state contract doesn’t get funded, oh well, deal with it.
Stop issuing T-bills and municipal bonds, even if the budgets are balanced.
NO MORE treating gun owners as a political soccer ball, to be kicked around when it’s more convenient.
