I tried to register for the March 10 Conference but couldn’t navigate through the Site, must be those pirates! I’m a freedom-loving humane activist running as an independent for Congress in the MA 9th District to help the 99% grow a voters revolution to overcome the Wall Street government and their two-party bandits! Let me know how I can help and I hope to be there on March 10.
That is weird, Peter. Try clicking our contribute link and just contribute at least $5. If that doesn’t work, email us at info@masspirates.org and we look further at the issue you are having.
