You say Wellstone’s crash was DEFINITELY an accident; I say, it *might* not have been. That puts you in the camp of Having More To Prove. I always approach this stuff from an agnostic perspective; part of what gives Conspiracy Theory a bad name is that too many of its adherents (due, no doubt, to their wide-eyed paranoia) go in there and say this definitely happened, and so did that, and it was aliens behind the Grassy Knoll, etc., etc. Abandoning certitude is the first step toward a serious study of history.

I also think that Wellstone’s crash is different/far more shady than any of the other ones you cite; I have yet to see evidence that makes me think any of those might not be accidents. A good summary of the Wellstone evidence is here: http://www.strike-the-root.com/columns/Bottoms/bottoms25.html

A good deal of the systems are moving to paper ballots, we’ll see what complaints arise from that. Neither Carnahan, nor Wellstone, or Tower or Heinz were anything but pilot error. So was the ‘big bopper’, and Richie Valens. The Shura council is a little unclear on who they’re endorsing; don’t worry about it, they hate us all.
