Get in the Race!

Which Presidential Candidate are you? Take the test and find out.

I'm Leonard Peltier!
Which Presidential Candidate Are You?
Rung from Rum and Monkey's very own liberty bell.

I'm Leonard Peltier.

A Native American citizen of the Anishinabe and Lakota Nations, you’re considered by many people and organisations – Amnesty International, Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama among them – to be an illegally-held political prisoner and a blight on the already spotty human rights record of the United States. A campaigner for the rights of Native American peoples, you organised security for a tribe which was encountering violence from pro-assimilation groups – and were subsequently involved in a shoot-out on June 26, 1975.

Now in jail, you’ve decided to run for President of the United States as part of the Peace & Freedom Party. Sure, you can’t participate in the democratic process as a convicted felon, but you were wrongly accused, right? Right. And anyway, it’s worth it to draw attention to the plight of the oppressed native people throughout the country.

Which Presidential Candidate are you? Take the test and find out. (And then let us know the results through this post's comments, eh?)


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.


Silence, they say, is the voice of complicity. But silence is impossible. Silence screams. Silence is a message, just as doing nothing is an act. Let who you are ring out & resonate
in every word & every deed.

-- Leonard Peltier
