63. A vote for Hillary

Sat Mar 12, 2016, 02:04 PM

Mar 2016

is a vote for perpetual war and people of all colors coming home disfigured and/or in body bags. A vote for Hillary is a vote for fracking and a ruined planet for all of us. Dirty water, air and food. A vote for Hillary is a vote for "For Profit" criminal justice system and a perpetuation of the incarceration of PoC for non violent crimes. A vote for Hillary is a vote for the to 1% continuing to be enriched on the backs of all of us. To choose between that and the carnival barker Trump is no choice at all. Want change? Want a better nation that cares for all its citizens? The children, the poor, the aged, the sick and the veterans of all races and creed? Than don't buy the hype on Hillary and instead fight for Bernie to be our nominee. If he fails we all fail. If the choice is dismal following the primaries than it won't matter which is elected. As usual. No more status quo.
