Organizing, Education & Labor Unions: A Revolutionary Green Party New Deal!

“Working Americans and organized labor face an unprecedented bipartisan attack by the Democrats and Republicans in this November’s elections. As long-time labor activists, we urge a vote for the Green Party national ticket.”

“…the question that bothers most Muslims is the idea that just because someone says they are Muslim or that their actions are representative of Islam doesn’t make it so.”

Revolutionary Change has begun:

Since taking office Obama has bombed TEN Sovereign NATIONS, more than any of his predecessors since World War Two. These bombings violate International Treaties, U. S. Civil Law, The War Powers Act and Constitutional Mandates. We have deployed troops, attacked, bombed, or used illegal drones against these nations. We were not attacked.

Abusive American Cops: bigger problem than most admit

“These problems aren’t rare, they aren’t isolated, and they are taking an enormous human and financial toll on our country. If we are to ever properly address this problem, we cannot do so if we do not honestly admit its expansive size, scope and depth.”

Manufacturing Consent: … or why Chomsky endorses voting

– the other 80% of the population — are marginalized, diverted from political awareness and participation in self-governing, and reduced to apathy so they don’t vote or take charge

THE DRONE PAPERS

~That “Drones strikes—which are being conducted in Pakistan, Yemen, and Somlia—are illegal is cut and dry.

Moonbeams and more…

“With instruments such as the Hubble Space Telescope, scientists have discovered a bewildering amount of cosmic turf, and yet they still know of only a single inhabited world.”

Lawsuit Against Phony Debate Commission Filed

Note: The Commission on Presidential Debates is a charade. It may have a name that sounds official but in fact it is a corporation created by Democratic and Republican political operatives and funded by big business interests to keep independent parties like the Green and Libertatian Party as well as independent candidates out of the presidential debates.

Stop Drilling in the Arctic! Obama betrayed us Again…

Oil companies like Shell, which recently received the green light from the Obama administration to begin drilling in the Chukchi Sea as soon as this summer, have been trying to gain access to the Arctic for years. Now Obama has allowed it.

Premeditated murder by cop. No charges filed, citizens remain at risk.

One of the GBI investigators who supervised the criminal investigation into the shooting told the AJC that the shooting was unjust.

“This is the worst one I’ve ever investigated,” said Mike McDaniel, a retired GBI agent. “I don’t think it’s a good shoot. I don’t think it’s justified.”

Even the lead investigator says that this was unjustified, yet these two cops are still out on the street, “protecting and serving.” So turn the brutal, rusty, and bloody cogs of the American justice system.

Dr. Jill Stein is running for president

We need peace with honor. Shut down the corporate wars and reinvest in peace and productivity instead of bombs. The bottom line is peace or war. The only potential president with an offer on the table which begins with peace is Doctor Jill Stein. She can lead this nation to healing, recovery and reconstruction.

Sanders, dogging for Hillary and the Democrats, was never even in the running..

STEPHANOPOULOS: So if you lose in this nomination fight, will you support the Democratic nominee?

SANDERS: Yes. I have in the past.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Not going to run as an independent?

SANDERS: No, absolutely not. I’ve been very clear about that.

Bernie Sanders is this election’s Democratic sheepdog.

Dr. Jill Stein is right about Education

If we want to talk about education reform in America, we need to talk about Dr. Jill Stein.   With … More

we can know except that
we should be kind to each other and do what we can for other people.”

Health Care is a Human Right

Health Care instead of Insurance Scams: Universal, Non-Profit Healthcare ~OO~ Everybody In and Nobody left out!

The money we could save with universal, nonprofit, single-payer health care would be enough to provide health care for everybody. And we deserve that.

Think Globally/Act Locally

“Our generation is on the verge of the most profound catastrophe the human species has ever faced.”

Jill Stein can take the White House.

“We know Bernie supports Hillary. Hillary has promised to attack Iran. To take the White House, all Jill Stein has to do is tell the truth.”

Difference between Sanders and Stein: Difference between War and Peace

“Don’t let them talk you out of your power. They want you to think that you are powerless, that you have to go to the polls and vote for one of the Wall Street sponsored candidates. But, remember, what that means is not just wasting your vote on more of what’s hurting you, it’s actually using your vote as a weapon against yourself. In fact, you are the most powerful thing out there.”
