OPP Spokesmodel Published Article on How Trump Will Not be President
Submitted by info on Thu, 03/03/2016 - 19:31
Counterpunch on March 1 published an article by Dan Meek on why Donald Trump will not be President. The Republican Convention can deny him the nomination, even if he enters the convention with what he thinks is a majority of the delegates. Recall that the 1968 Democratic Convention nominated a candidate who had received exactly zero votes in the primaries (Hubert Humphrey), as the police rioted outside the convention hall in Chicago. And by the time of the convention, it will be too late for Trump to get on state ballots as a non-affiliated candidate. If he were smart, he would start gathering the necessary signatures now.

New York Times Publishes Letter from OPP Co-Founder
Submitted by info on Mon, 11/28/2011 - 13:32
As published in the New York Times on Novbember 28, 2011:
Lawrence Lessig suggests a $50 federal income tax credit for political campaign contributions. Oregon has had a similar $50 state income tax credit for decades ($100 on a joint return). It has worked well, with about 100,000 Oregon tax returns claiming about $8 million in tax credits annually. So the big-money-addicted Oregon legislators have repealed it, effective at the end of 2013, so they can focus on their main sources of financing — huge contributions from corporations, unions and wealthy individuals.
DAN MEEK
Portland, Ore.
Nov. 17, 2011
The writer is chief attorney for Fair Elections Oregon, the group that promulgated an Oregon statewide campaign finance reform law in 2006.
