[GPCA-SGA-Votes] Green Party Sex Tape video

[gdjohnson2 at juno.com]

All I see is mention of a hypothetical sex tape
as a way of making a statement about campaign
financing.  It also gives Josh an excuse for
an eye-catching title that will draw clicks.  No
adult content in the video.

A tad risky, a cheap gimmick, but not anything
I can get excited about.

Is this real or a hatchet job by Green opponents? If it is real, it is
really poor judgement and is quite disturbing. I could not support a
candidate taking this approach to fundraising. It?s just wrong. The fair
thing would be for the candidate himself to explain whether this is real
or why he took this extreme action.

Dear SGA delegates

I am very disturbed by the Green Party Sex Tape video
(https://youtu.be/dxhUS-QQPbg) created and posted by Gubernatorial
candidate Josh Jones. I find the video offensive and an example of
extremely poor judgment by someone seeking to represent our party as a
candidate for our state?s highest office.

I was first introduced face to face with the Green Party at the August
2016 Green Party national convention in Houston, which I attended as an
interested observer, after being turned off by the Democratic Party (as a
Berniecrat delegate at the Democratic National Convention a week
earlier.)

At the GPUS convention, I met David Cobb, Laura Wells, Mike Feinstein,
Jill Stein, Ajamu Baraka, Cornel West (when things looked like he might
Go Green) and Luis Rodriguez (the GPCA's 2014 Gubernatorial candidate).
Based upon those interactions, I was impressed by the Green Party,
effectively going Green the following month. Since then, I have learned a
lot about the Green Party and its inner workings. I love how there is a
high value on internal democracy. And I love the GPCA and GPUS platforms
? solid.

But I have to say that if I would have come across this Josh Jones Sex
Tape video in 2016 prior to attending the Green Party convention, I would
have not given the Green Party a chance at all. The concept and content
is immature and damaging to our party.  A more thoughtful treatment could
have been a great PSA moment.  Instead it is an embarrassment, plain and
simple.

Given this, for anyone seeking our party?s endorsement, I think the video
should be deleted from YouTube. But at a minimum, if this embarrassment
is to remain on-line, the use of the words ?Green Party? should be
removed from the video's title. No one in our party has the right to post
something like that, misrepresenting our party?s name in that manner.



Disappointed in Los Angeles, 
Angelica Due?as
