PoetsWest is syndicated. If you are unable to receive PoetsWest programs on your local non-profit community radio, we encourage you to pass this message to them. PoetsWest, through its affiliation with KSER 90.7 FM, makes our radio programs available to non-profit radio stations around the nation and the globe. Help to get the word out to friends and relatives in other areas. There is no money involved in this project but it does offer much wider exposure to the poets and provides additional programming to your local non-profit radio station. PoetsWest is listed on Pacifica’s AudioPort.org web site under Weekly Programs.

—With Congress passing such laws as Homeland Securities Act, The Patriots Act and especially the NDAA, that have eroded our Constitutional rights and have given the executive branch tyrannical power it makes you wonder why citizens continue to vote for candidates of the Democratic and Republican Parties when there are so many good and capable independent candidates and alternate political parties from which to choose—J.
