“It is terrible to watch people cling to their captivity and insist on their own destruction.” Shortly after James Baldwin’s death, Toni Morrison eulogized him: “I never heard a single command from you, yet the demands you made on me, the challenges you issued to me, were nevertheless unmistakable.” I can’t be as gentle as Baldwin, […]
Demanding an Electoral Revolution from the Reader
“I Vote Green, as Usual, to the Dismay of Some Friends. But What Else Can One Do?”
VotePact offers a self-promoting strategy which could snowball. It can be achieved with a Stein voter prompting a would-be Harris and would-be Trump voters to break out of the duopoly together.

How Polling Should Be Done: • Voter as Tiebreaker • Ranked Choice Voting

If the Greens and the Libertarians Joined Forces, They Could Win
The public sees the grim “choice” of Trump and Biden. Like dwarves and elves, people could join together and defeat the corrupt warmongering duopoly. The CNN “debate” last night featuring Trump and Biden helped highlight their collective and individual derangement. There may be a historic chance for a “third party” to win the White House […]
