US Pirate Party Endorses Barack Obama

Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 12:22 PM by bushmeat

Quote:
"The US Pirate Party has no candidate for the upcoming elections, but who do the pirates vote for? Barack Obama, and the party strongly urges all its members to support his campaign, and vote for him in the primaries, and later this year in November.

US Pirate Party Endorses Barack Obama. The Pirate Party just published a press release in which they show their support for Obama, and ask their members to support him as well. Obama is indeed the only candidate who's even been willing to consider copyright change, the others are more interested in protecting the commercial rights of a few. Other than that, he has a healthy view on how to ensure people's privacy and he values net neutrality."
