HIĀ ,
If you thought Bernie Sanders was the only one facing the wolves this
election season, let us inform you that he's not.
It's become pretty obvious that there's all-out war against Bernie Sanders,
and the DNC's picks for the committees that will oversee nomination
convention business certainly underscores this reality. And now with Barack
Obama threatening to "go public" on his opposition to Sanders, you know the
fix is in.
Last week in an open letter, Noam Chomsky, Barbara Ehrenreich, and other
progressive luminaries insisted that Howie Hawkins and the Green Party vote
Democrat for president in battleground states.
They condescendingly describe Green votes as a self-indulgent "feel-good
activity" as if Green votes are not votes for urgent climate action, real
social and economic justice policies, and peace policies.
Don't they see that the Democrats have joined the Republicans in supporting
pro-corporate economic policies and pro-war foreign policies that have
generated growing inequality at home and endless wars abroad?
As Howie said in his response to the open letter [3], "The left cannot
outsource fighting the right to the Democrats."
Howie points out that the Democrats have helped to normalize Trump by
joining with him to overwhelmingly support military budget increases, the
US Mexico Canada Trade Agreement (NAFTA 2.0), and the prosecution of Julian
Assange and persecution of Chelsea Manning.
The Democrats don't represent us. We need your help to ensure that Howie's
voice continues to represent our values of peace, people, and planet over
profit. Can you help with a donation of $51 today [2]?
We need 20 states to achieve the matching funds threshold to ensure our
campaign has enough fuel to campaign and petition onto the ballot in all 50
states and DC. Many states are within $2,000 of reaching their threshold.
That's why we're asking for your donation today. Can you spare a dollar for
each of the 50 states plus the future state of DC [2]?
If we're to campaign and petition onto the ballot in all 50 states and DC,
we need to keep Howie on the campaign trail. Please make a donation today
[2].
In solidarity,
Team Howie
