Now that Bernie is focused on the Democratic Convention and the party platform, it's time for me to look for alternatives for President. Trump is out.

Saturday I drove up to Philadelphia to check out the Socialist Alternative/Movement4Bernie presentation which featured video messages from Jill Stein and Kshama Sawant. Cheri Honakala, Jill Stein's vice presidential partner on the 2012 Green Party ticket was present and spoke at the meeting.

Jill Stein called for the creation of a united party of the 99%, without corporate money or influence, joining the people energized by the Sanders campaign and the various fragmented groups of the left end of the political spectrum.

People need to understand that this is a marathon not a sprint. Bernie's primary run was stage 1, now comes stage 2 (who knows maybe Bernie will join the Green Party). Jill Stein is a very good spokesperson for progressives. Jill could reach 15% in the polls and qualify for the debates. Once she gets on the stage, she will open a lot more eyes. We need some positive energy, can't give up now, can't give up next year. There are simple ways to help Jill:
