Dear Greens,

 

I'm a lifelong resident of Berkeley, and I've been an active Green since joining in order to work on the 1996 Nader for President campaign. Since then I served on the County Council of the Green Party of Alameda County for more than 8 years, and as Treasurer for longer. I've been a GPUS delegate since 2004 and have represented California in that past 3 National Presidential Nominating conventions. I've been a member of  the GPUS International Committee for 5 years and was our sole official US delegate to the 2012 Global Greens Congress in Dakar, Senegal.

 

Currently I am working part-time for Inveneo, a San Francisco-based non-profit that is installing communication and computing networks in poor rural communities in various African and Asian countries and Haiti. Our current project is helping to get internet access to Ebola responders in remote parts of  Liberia and Sierra Leone.

 

As a GPUS delegate, I will try to help make the national Party more effective and less riven by internal nitpicking disputes. Our country desperately needs a true opposition party, and the Green Party has the ideas that represent the beliefs of most Americans. Let's work together to free the minds of our fellow residents from two-Party brainwashing.

 

regards,

Bob Marsh
