I was delighted to finally have GOP Presidential candidate and former Louisiana Gov. Buddy Roemer on my KPFK/Pacifica Radio show today! The result was a feisty conversation about corporate money in elections with a feisty, renegade Republican who, frankly, would change the course of both history and the televised debates, in my opinion, were he actually allowed to participate in them.

He speaks about being shut out of the debates, names a few names (ahem...Bloomberg News...Al Hunt...ahem) and we mix it up on a few other topics --- including the third party run he's considering with the shadowy Americans Elect outfit --- to boot.

Roemer's campaign website is BuddyRoemer.com and his not-to-be-missed Twitter feed is: @BuddyRoemer.

In the second half of the show, Desi Doyen joins us for some Green News Report and an update on Obama's discussion about green issues in his State of the Union last night. And, speaking of feisty, we finish up with a bunch of calls from KPFK listeners.

P.S. Reminder, I don't always post all of the shows here, but you can find all of our archives at KPFK here and subscribe to the show's podcast (for free) right here.

P.P.S. Still looking for logo ideas for the newly expanded show, if anybody has one. And, again, here's a photo or two that may, or may not, be useful in that crowd-sourced endeavor.
