I have constantly stated that this election was in need of a good alternative to the two major candidates….neither of which will do anything to make this a better country….
On Wednesday, 17Aug2016, CNN did something that NO other network will do…they gave an outlet to alternative candidates….first it was the Libertarians and Johnson and now it was Stein of the Green Party…..below is an op-ed on the subject…….
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein and vice presidential candidate Ajamu Baraka took part in CNN’s first Green Party town hall Wednesday night, laying out their proposals to abolish all student debt, establish a single-payer healthcare system, create a foreign policy based on humanitarian values, and to establish a “Green New Deal” that would both create millions of jobs nationwide and help transition the country to 100 percent renewable energy by 2030.
I watched and I liked what I saw and heard…..but that is me…..confused voters or those on the fence need to at least give the Green Party a look….I think they can find something in their platform that would appeal to their sensibilities….
In case you missed the town hall on CNN…..I had considered given my breakdown of the townhall but if the reader is not interested they will just blow it off….but if there is interests then why not form your own opinion……
Anything would be better than the two sleazoids that come from the major parties…
Let me reiterate….Think Green!
Hopefully this will grab the attention of some “undecideds”….chuq
