Installment #2 - Fall.2004
Sunday, Oct. 24th 9:00 What America Needs and Unprecedented: the 2000 Presidential Election

Unprecedented: the 2000 Presidential Election
Filmmakers Joan Sekler and Richard Ray Perez rehash the dramatic events of the 2000 presidential election, exposing a chain of incidents they claim led up to the battle for the presidency in Florida and the undermining of democracy in America. Narrated by Peter Coyote, this revealing documentary examines an allegedly suspicious pattern of irregularities, injustices and voter purges all in a state governed by the wining candidate's brother.

What America Needs
A film that asks the simple question posed in the title ?What does America need??. Traipsing across 10 cities and interviewing over 500 individuals, filmmaker Mark Wojahn creates an idealistic tapestry of what we all want from America. Taking the thoughts, dreams, and opinions of everyday Americans ?What America Needs? transcends political boundaries and creates the America we all want. All politicians should view ?What America Needs? and realize that this is true democracy in action, the needs and wants of the American People.
