Socialist Alternative

Movement4Bernie - Beyond Bernie meeting

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. Stein gave a brief run through of the highlights of her platform that mostly coincide with Sanders' platform demands.

Socialist Alternative Platform -- My New Direction

After watching the joke of a Democratic corporate/statist platform last night I have decided to abandon the Democratic Party as a hopeless case. Its time to build a socialist alternative. For those who suffered through last nights Democrat Party platform fiasco, I offer the Socialist Alternative platform as an alternative. I see no reason to continue paying attention to Trumpoclintonian narcissisum and corporate/state cluster fuck.
