Just thinking about all those "qualified" people who gave us the war in Viet Nam, the War in Iraq, 20 years too long (of failing) in Afghanistan, didn't care - or didn't have the spine - to give Americans what the citizens of every other advanced democracy have: universal health care, free college, paid maternity/paternity leave, free child care and a guaranteed livable wage. I mean, they've done such a bang up job and all. Over the last 48 years, $50 trillion has been transferred from the bottom 90 percent of Americans to the top one percent. The idea that only those whose careers have been entrenched in a system that drove us into that ditch should possibly be considered "qualified" to lead us out of it is preposterous. We don't need to respect such a system; we need to disrupt it.

Too many of the countries of which you speak no longer provide the healthcare and college provision of which you speak. The media will rip that kind of stuff apart.

You mean the Dems, right? Bc the Dem party is a big part of all those "qualified" ppl you speak of.

What happened 50 years ago, 20 years ago, is a learning experience. So what are you doing today.

They'll give you a war in Ukraine.

Did you have the courage to speak at the anti war rally today or do you reserve your courage for your tweets? Third party or bust. Not another penny or vote to demoRATS.

That's what I'm talking about!
