Politics Does Not End The Day Of

As The Longest Serving Independent In The History Of The United States Congress, As Somebody Who Came Into Office By Defeating An Incumbent Democratic Mayor In Burlington, Vermont, I Know Something About Third Party Politics. And I Respect Jill [stein].

I'm Not Going To Get Establishment Support. I'm Not Going To Get The Support Of The Governors And The Senators, With Few Exceptions, And Many Of The Major Organizations.

I Took An Oath To Support And Defend The Constitution Of The United States, And I'm Concerned That Voting For This [anti-terrorism] Legislation Fundamentally Violates That Oath.

In The 1980s And 1990s, Jack Welch, The Ceo Of General Electric, Laid Off Over 100,000 Employees. His Reward? When He Retired From Ge, He Received A Golden Parachute Of Over $400 Million Dollars. This Is The Kind Of Corporate Greed And Irresponsibility That Is Destroying The Middle Class And Must Be Ended.

I Think It Is Now Widely Understood That The So-called "war On Drugs" Has Largely Been A Failure. Too Many People Have Developed Criminal Records For Smoking Marijuana. Too Many People Have Gone To Jail For Nonviolent Crimes. So I Think It's Important For Us To Rethink The War On Drugs.
