5. Yes, people did die there...

And who gets elected President will determine how many people continue to die in our name. It's not just all about health care and jobs and the economy, after all. People will die from US policies regardless of who is elected, here and abroad. Though at least with Bernie, he at least understands all this, though getting a Congress to cooperate with him is certainly not a given at this time.

So is this a good way to bring attention to people who will die in our name? Maybe, maybe not. Is there any good way to bring attention to that? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe I'm naive to think that even 1% of the population even factors that into their decision...
