Linda McCulloch

For Our Montana Readers: Election Guide

First I want to highlight Democrat Linda McCulloch for Montana Secretary of State. Linda is trying to unseat ultra-conservative right wing extremist Brad Johnson. Johnson has been involved in an attempt by conservatives to rollback the state's Election Day Registration laws.

Linda served three terms in the Montana House of Representatives, from 1995 to 2001. As a legislator, she served on the Judiciary, Highways & Transportation, Local Government, Education and House Rules Committees, and interim Committee assignments included Juvenile Justice & Mental Health, Indian Affairs, and Education & Local Government. In 1999, she served as the Minority Caucus Leader.

Linda was elected State Superintendent in November 2000. During two terms her accomplishments include:

Employing effective use of technology to strengthen the Office of Public Instruction services and communication with schools and the public.

Passing Full-Time Kindergarten so Montana's children have the opportunity to get the best possible start to their education.

Implementing Montana Read! a statewide reading initiative, convening three statewide summits.

Championing legislation to create an Honorary High School Diploma program for WWII, Korean and Vietnam veterans that left school to serve our country.

Protect the vote in Montana: Linda McCulloch for Secretary of State

Since 2000 most Americans have come to realize that they have no guarantee that their vote will count. We know pretty much for a fact that there have been at least 2 dubious elections in Florida, at least one in Ohio, one in Georgia and one in North Carolina. And this is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Florida's elections have become so bad that the Carter Center, which monitors elections all over the world, refused to monitor Florida's 2004 Presidential election because Florida did not meet the minimum requirement for a democratic election. Even Republicans are admitting probable election fraud in Ohio and Georgia and probably also Florida.

The Secretary of State Project is targeting states where election fraud has happened or seems likely and where the secretary of state is either doing nothing or seems actively involved in election fraud. They support honest, reform-minded candidates for secretary of state who take election fraud seriously. So far they have won in Ohio, Minnesota, New Mexico, Nevada and Iowa. Their winning candidate, in Ohio, Jennifer Brunner, has been winning awards for her reforms.

Words to live by

The truth is that as a woman, a woman of color, and specifically an African American woman, the insults come so fast and furious that there’s always the danger of becoming overwhelmed and de-sensitized.

Sad to say, but I’m used to hearing black and brown women being call “bitch” “ho” “skank” “skeazer” “gold digger” or some variation of all of the above in popular songs and music videos. “Norbit,” Eddie Murphy’s current movie, may be the most recent example of a black man putting on a dress and playing the fat, ignorant, loud, brown-skinned black woman as an object of ridicule and revulsion, you can bet it won’t be the last. And check out “Flavor of Love,” VH1’s hit show in which women demean themselves in an effort to get Flava Flav - brought beneath low since his high as a member of the seriously political rap group Public Enemy - to choose them.

What these three have in common is that they demean black women, earn handsome profits for their corporate sponsors, and for the most part exist devoid of criticism.
