While we appreciate Rep. John Conyers&#8217; recent statement that an attack on Iran will lead him to open impeachment hearings, we believe that opening them BEFORE an attack is urgent, in order to prevent WW III.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nImpeachment is long overdue. We the undersigned are running for Congress on an impeachment platform, because invading another country (Iraq) on the basis of lying to Congress is impeachable, along with many other actions of Bush and Cheney. We believe they have ignored and overiden the Constitution many times over, as well as violating international treaties that are the supreme law of the land.<\/p>\n<p>As candidates, we have taken an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. All incumbents have taken the same oath, yet they are keeping impeachment off the table. They are violating their oath of office.<\/p>\n<p>We urge current members of Congress to start impeachment proceedings at once. We accuse those who will not do this of bad faith, and call them oath breakers. We pledge to make their lack of action on impeachment a central issue this election year.<\/p>\n<p>Carol Wolman, MD &#8211; Green candidate for Congress, CA District 1<br \/>\nRobert Feuer- Democratic candidate for Congress, Massachusetts District 1<br \/>\nKathy Cummings &#8211; Green candidate for Senate, Illinois<br \/>\nLaurie Dobson &#8211; Independent candidate for Senate, Maine<br \/>\nSamm Sampson &#8211; Democratic candidate for Congress, Florida District 10<br \/>\nCarol Brouillet &#8211; Green candidate for Congress, California District 14<br \/>\nChris Lugo &#8211; Independent candidate for Senate, Tennessee<br \/>\nEugene Ruyle &#8211; Peace and Freedom candidate for Congress, California District 10<br \/>\nCraig Hill &#8211; Democratic candidate for Congress, Vermont district 1<br \/>\nHarold Burbank &#8211; Green candidate for Congress, Connecticut District 5<br \/>\nRichard Duffee &#8211; Green candidate for Congress, Connecticut District 4<br \/>\nJohn M.
