What’s in your wallet?
Say out loud what you stand for! Others will hear.

We do not have agreement on the basics of a platform. Lacking any leadership whatsoever, we have no one and no issue to guide us. NOBODY! NOTHING! “What’s in your wallet?” Frankly if you are a Democrat, you are rudderless and bankrupt! That is where we are right now.
Lacking any primaries to hear and to nominate our leader, can we not agree on the basics for which we all stand? Let me ask. What do you stand for?
I stand for the belief that every single one of us deserves (1) safe food, (2) clean air and water, (3) shelter, (4) healthcare, (5) education, and (6) freedom?
It is a profound and heartbreaking failure that neither our institutions nor our political party can even affirm that these are basic human rights. If freedom includes defense and constitutional governance, we have a solid framework in my 6 thoughts, or thrusts. Those 6 thrusts are a foundation upon which to build.
Here is my problem. That is what I come up with; however, a single brain is just inadequate for brainstorming. Let me be honest there. You can gen up something, maybe even something noteworthy, but that will never be as good as the product derived from multiple knowledgeable brains. I have seen the comparison hundreds of times because I have worked this brainstorming process in my tradelane over the years.
Multiple knowledgeable brains are needed in unison. Every brain is 10 billion braincells. If you give me 20 knowledgeable people we will draw from 200 billion braincells. We will work on configuring ideas, concepts, and conclusions.
Knowledgeable brains are essential to brainstorming. (A study of Condorcet’s Theory will explain that.) Get me 20 knowledgeable people, yes, 200 billion braincells to brainstorm the platform.
Start our movement. My post from January 5 explains this. I have not heard from the DNC about this. They are not ready yet, I presume. I started without them, but know my single brain is not enough to get us there.
What to do tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow. Protest! I made protest signs for you and your printing company. Tell the printer that these are public with no copyright, to encourage dissemination! Share!
Protest for change!
And at protests, yell like hell for these needed societal changes, as Jackson Browne sang, til you go down. Yes, take to the streets.
In 2016, I switched from being a Republican. I know where I am now!
Anita Magriplis, a marvelous graphic designer at the Cape, sent me this cartoon sometime around 2001, and I saved it as I thought it was important.
The Frogs of Portland are heroes that deserve attention and our gratitude. Honor the Frogs of Portland by getting their T-shirt (at the blue button below). I vote for “Grass Green” color as it is Froggie like.
Thank you for reading, sharing, subscribing, and protesting. I owe you for finding my voice. You have given that place and meaning. I love y’all for that. Please become a subscriber, a paid subscriber if you can.
How can no one have commented. I stand for equity for all people, justice under the law, which covers every single person and entity, affordable housing, no tax on food, healthcare for everyone, and free college and vocational training. It’s cheaper to provide those things than it is to provide services for those who cannot access them. And while we’re at it, let’s get going on taxing equitably.
