Fresh from a 4000-person super rally in Denver, the Nader/Gonzalez Campaign team has hit the ground in Minneapolis and will be out in full force over the weekend to focus attention on the need for opening up the Presidential Debates for third party and independent candidates, working towards the crescendo: a star-studded open the debates super-rally on Thursday.

Ralph Nader, Matt Gonzalez, Jesse Ventura, Cindy Sheehan, Rosa Clemente, 98 Degrees band members Justin Jeffre and Jeff Timmons, singer-songwriters Nellie McKay, David Rovics, Tom Neilson and other surprise guests soon to be announced will all appear at the Nader/Gonzalez "Open the Debates" Super Rally September 4 at 7.30 p.m. at the Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis.

The Nader/Gonzalez independent presidential candidacy will be on the ballot in 45 states, is polling at 5-6 per cent nationally, and a new Time/CNN poll shows Ralph Nader polling 8 percent in New Mexico, 7 percent in Colorado, 7 percent in Pennsylvania, and 6 percent in Nevada -- all key battleground states. Results of a recent MPR News/U of M Humphrey Institute poll found 77 percent of the state's likely voters say they would consider voting for an independent or third-party candidate
