Neither Hillary nor Trump will do.
Lesser
evilism predictably produces a pair of candidates each cycle who are
both worse than was the more evil candidate last time. This cannot go on
forever, and has already gone too far. We need a nonviolent movement to
reform our election system — something not done through elections. But
there are plenty of good candidates, such as Jill Stein, to check or
write in. We should vote for those good candidates and get right back to
work on improving the world.”
This
is the essence of the problem. Whichever of these two you were to vote
for, you’d get wars, nasty policies toward immigrants, plutocratic
policies toward wealth, and destructive policies toward the natural
environment — barring the arising of a powerful popular movement to
bring the government under control.
We cannot continue unprovoked American aggression for profit.
Everyday people are the only ones who can stop this insanity. We may
not be in
the Millionaires Club, but everyday Americans are the 99% and
we have the power. Profiteers, war-cons and criminals who refuse to
secure the peace and will undue this nation are only the 1%.
We can wake up the people and take back the planet with the Green New Deal. With Dr. Jill Stein as the next American president, we can secure the peace,rebuild the nation and restore the planet. Our lives are in our hands.
Before 2030 we will be bankrupt, in retreat from more than 800 military
bases, with rising seas and nuclear meltdowns. When hundreds of nuclear
sites are submerged, this will contaminate our already dying seas and
it will be all over but the shouting.
Trump and Clinton are nuts.
But Dr. Stein can provide mature leadership and a vetted plan: Stein is level-headed, better-educated, younger, more progressive, and smarter than Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Donnie Trump and the last five presidents.
The war-con 1% have been screwing up for 36 years, It’s time to stand up and take it back. Si se puede.
Dr. Cornel West Is Right,
Jill Stein Should Be
America’s First Female President
With the horrific terrorist attack in Nice, France, it’s important to have our next president address the failed war on terror. After the Brussels attacks, Dr. Stein made the following statement:
“As I have stated before, the terrorist attacks are clearly a product of the exploding violence in the Middle East over the past 15 years. Governments have been destabilized and weapons have poured into the hands of extremists. Over a million lives, largely civilians, have been lost in Iraq alone. That carnage enables terrorists to mobilize mass recruiting and rationalize their own horrific, despicable acts. In the last decade, the US-led assaults to achieve regime change have created failed states in which ISIS has flourished. In the process, the US has supplied vast stocks of weapons to the Middle East, including nearly $100 million in weapons sales to Saudi Arabia in recent years.”http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/dr-cornel-west-is-right-jill-stein-should-be-americas_us_5788c31ae4b0cbf01e9f84c2
“Neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump will become the next president of the United States. It would be wise to repeat that to yourself many times so that you can fully embrace this because this statement is true. …Millions upon millions of the American people do not like or trust these two raging egotists.”
~ Tom Pappalardo
“There’s a cartoon floating around at which a Muslim U.S. voter tries to choose between “Ban my relatives from entering country” and “Bomb the s— out of my relatives.” Not much of a choice, is it? Especially when the bomber is following the model of our current president with his record deportations, and the banner is a loose cannon who’s proposed to kill the families of designated enemies in the Middle East.
Sure, one candidate is a comically ill-informed jackass who hates women, while the other is a woman whose comically jackassy policies will come with great scholarly volumes of ill information. But where does either of those really get us?
