Anybody who thought the idea of a Department of Peace was a wacky idea might want to rethink that.

@marwilliamson, I've always supported the idea of a Department of Peace. That's one of the reasons I voted for @Dennis_Kucinich in the 2008 primaries. I also promoted it on a website I started, MyPeace.TV (which will be mobile-friendly soon).💙mypeace.tv/video/marianne-wi…

I don't think it'd be a good mix on the National Security Council. They focus on war & spying. The Department of Peace would become a spy agency in the very next administration.

An idea popped into my head just about an hour ago—LIFT. Lift one another. That seems like the only way to get out of this downward societal spiral. Lift. Help. Support. Love. We can rise together in harmony as one United planet of creatures. LIFT

There is not one policy prescription in here. It's just generalizations on how to create more bureaucracy at the federal level.

What a crazy idea! Have you heard of anything so bizarre? Once again satire breaks the fourth wall. Anyhow I know where we could find the funding for the Dept of Peace...
Replying to @marwilliamson @AriKrauss
We need to do a lot more towards the demilitarization of our foreign policy.

Thank you for running in 2020.

I was so excited about this idea! This has been an interesting season 🌎 so many ideas that were deemed “crazy” during the debates have found their way into lives and for the better. Keep speaking!!!!!

This is nice Marianne but you're not gunna counterbalance the military industrial complex by setting up competing institutions. It's called The Blob for a reason. As soon as you think you've penetrated it, you're actually just absorbed into it.
