seems to bring you joy. Odd.

Contributions are needed to a dialogue about how to move beyond incarceration as a primary policing strategy. Kudos to Sanders and any other candidate who names this as a priority, especially given that prohibiting ex-felons from voting helps produce Republican majorities and predidents. We're working on changing this in Wisconsin and it's an uphill battle, but having Sanders raise the profile is a good thing.

That's it. Laugh some more, and when you stop, do something.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
