Are You Really Registered to Vote?

Think you're registered to vote? You may be wrong! Recently

MoveOn checked public voter files in some key states, and

found up to 30% of MoveOn members were not registered.

Although almost all of us think we are registered, there

are lots of things that can happen in the process. Luckily,

there's a simple solution to this problem: Register. Make sure

you're not turned away from the voting booth on Nov. 2, by

registering now. It takes less than five minutes.

NO TAXES FOR OWNERS, ONLY WORKERS

Mark Weisbrot, AlterNet

CUCKOO FOR COCOA ADS

Matt Taibbi, AlterNet

A much-lauded ad campaign uses a new bag of tricks to shill

innovative visual spectacle obscuring child labor issues
