Spread the word – vote WikiLeaks. WikiLeaks became the media, now we can become the government

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Sun, 01/09/2013 - 9:06pm

Gerry Georgatos - September 1st, 2013 - We can change the political discourse in this country, we can change the political landscape. Next week, and despite it being unimaginable now, we can have a brave new Australia, a never-before-seen landscape, our national consciousness enriched. With less than a week to the federal election we have the opportunity before us to make this happen. The Senate-only party, The WikiLeaks Party, has three candidates in three States who are all close to being elected. We need your primary vote.
