re: doc john

Against my desire to be involved with politics I find myself drawn into it, the stakes are too high and so many people continue to be hurt in horrendous ways. Over the years I have become very political, though not as though you would see it in my accomplishments, as opportunity to work my way up, in my areas of interest, have been scarce or nonexistent (my perception).

I hope to see this country turned around from the disastrous self-defeating path it seems bent on at present. This seems as important an election as any I've ever seen! As I have a chance to make what is probably only a symbolic vote, because of the Electoral College system that steals my vote, being in a slight minority where I live, though it might get stolen electronically anyway, I will still vote!!! It is vital to get this one, I think. A Dieing world of the corrupt wealthy, the enslaved and the neglected is not an option that can go uncontested and unresisted, by any means necessary, if it comes to that! The viability of; Democracy, and our species dependant on a viable natural world as we will always be; might be at stake. The choice of who to vote for to me is not even remotely in question.

Sincerely, Downsolong
