Years of experience has led me to believe that the American people are not the problem. Poll after poll makes clear that the people’s “will” is for a moderate, decent alignment of public policy with the angels of our better nature. 🧵

The problem is a sclerotic, corrupted political system that does more to obstruct than to facilitate the expression of the will of the people.

That system will go to extraordinary lengths to make sure the unholy alliance of government and corporate wealth is not disturbed. We have to be willing to go to any (peaceful) lengths to make sure it is.

That includes people who support Trump then. My personal experiences have shown me so.

We are so far to the right economically that mealy mouthed moderate policy isn't going to do shit.

You're smart enough to know that telling the American people that their greed is justified. That gets votes. "You, in the bottom 50%, you didn't work for better schools or medical care. Vote for me; I'll take more from those who earned it, and redistribute it to you."

Then why do candidates like you or literally anyone from a third party never see the light of day?

The problem is endless war an provocation such as the PROXY (I know you love that word) war with Russia. Americans have agency 2, we will not be considering a warmonger. youtube.com/pKcmNGvaDUs

I'd love to believe you represent something better, but you keep showing us that you don't.

Writing a couple of self-help books hardly qualifies as "experience".
