Directed to all the "good Democrats" still working for the Clinton crime family.
As many have said,it would be(++)good to have an operational third party by 2018. Then on to 2020. With such a short time left, it seems we need a national figure around whom the new party would center in early stages.
Sanders showed this is possible. Had he been honest, Sanders would be President today.
Somebody needs to stand up. It is time to rock.
Must we beg the Big People to lend us a hand?

Creepy video.

Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
the Kids are all right.
No juice means no power.
We need a new
Thomas Paine that can articulate the current zeitigiest and inspire a new revolution.

Ben Franklin recruited Thomas Paine, who was something
of a bounder before the the revolution and a bit of a traitor afterward. Heck of a phrase turner, though.
Thing is, we got 99 problems, while Paine had a solution, namely, armed revolution.
He did not have to contend against the NSA, the CIA, the FBI, Homeland Security, cameras on street corners, private security cameras, hyper-sensitive listening equipment, phone taps, the U.S. military, the National Guard, state militias, state militarized police, local militarized police, everyone else in local, state and federal government who carries a gun as part of their duties, etc.
@HenryAWallace You're going to have to
You're going to have to explain to me how Paine was 'kind of a traitor', arrrr those are fighting words Henry (snark)

Read his wiki.
More of an asshole, actually
He said the wrong things at the wrong time to and about the wrong people, and made too many enemies. So he decided to try his luck in France, repeated the same mistakes, and very nearly wound up minus his head. And even when he came back to the US, he still hadn't learned how not to make enemies - so he made a whole 'nother batch of them.
A Mouth that Roars is a good thing to awaken people to a crisis, but not very helpful in rebuilding afterward.
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
One can be a bit of a traitor and more of an asshole, but
the traitor element was definitely present. Being an asshole can result in being a traitor or vice versa. One neither negates nor excludes the other.
Tom Paine, too?
yes,dear.
If we are going for 2018
we had better get krackin'.
I'll submit four names for all to consider.
Jeff Merkley, was a Bernie supporter almost to the end.
Tulsi Gabbard, a true military hero. Not a rich phoney hotdogger like McCain.
Alan Grayson, hedge funder that's hard to like. But his rhetoric scares the living crap out of the Establishment, on both sides. Google "die quickly".
Of course, our own Steven D is in there.
Other than that, find and support local candidates with any label other than Republican or Democrat.
In addition, we must make the Establishment stumble by refusing to borrow from them. Credexit. Pay off all your debts. Reuse or refurbish, don't replace anything unnecessarily. Move your money to a Credit Union.
Buy an all electric car, not a hybrid.
Consume less and less and learn to make do with what you
have.
It doesn't need to go on forever. Just until we regain control of our government.
Could be as early as 2018 but more likely 2020.
At some point going forward, consuming less will be tantamount to the survival of the entire human race.
These things must happen BEFORE they begin exterminating us entirely.
Add Tim Canova.
Neither Russia nor China is our enemy.
Neither Iran nor Venezuela are threatening America.
Cuba is a dead horse, stop beating it.
Tim Canova
Add Tim Canova to that list. He's the one who ran against Debbie Wasserman-Schulz last year in Florida's 23d CD, with the Dem Party establishment actively working against him.
