VOTE BLUE! - its the Home Stretch and we can WIN BIG!


We are in the last phase
of 
the 2016 national election. 

THE FUTURE IS AT STAKE
AS AT NO TIME BEFORE.


That's right...Donald Trump is NOT who we are. And that includes his TrumpTrain of weak-kneed GOP followers that created their candidate and that are afraid to stand up their candidate.

VOTE THEM OUT! 
NO MORE OBSTRUCTION!


Right now, we have to do everything we can think of to help the Democrats to gain the House majority in order TO PASS THE ESSENTIAL LEGISLATION TO AVOID RUNAWAY GLOBAL WARMING. 

Here are some basic things almost anyone CAN DO:
  1. Sign up to volunteer to give as much time as possible to the local Democratic campaign organizations 
  2. Where registration to vote is still possible, get involved  
  3. Next, increased voter turn-out is A KEY TO VICTORY – spread the word as widely as possible, every BLUE vote is important; explain that 3rd Party votes and NOT VOTING = Trump votes! 
  4. On election day, help in whatever way you can – make calls, driving voters to their polling places, etc.



I’m very hopeful that we will have a Democratic President elected with an unquestionable MANDATE.

I’m also hopeful that we will have a Democratic majority Senate, in spite of the vast dark money supporting Republican candidates by the Koch network and others.

IF we get a Democratic Majority in the Senate, it is very likely that a Supreme Court, with at least one new member approved during the next Congress, will reverse the utterly partisan decisions and general direction of the Scalia Court. Perhaps the Court can take unlimited individual and corporate donations and spending out of the American political process!


VOTE FOR THOSE WHO ARE ABSOLUTELY COMMITTED TO PASS POLICIES 
ESSENTIAL TO SUFFICIENTLY SLOW GLOBAL WARMING.



THE FUTUTRE IS AT STAKE. 
BE AN ACTIVIST. 
GIVE AS MUCH TIME AS YOU CAN.

ELECTION RIGGING MUST BE DENIED OR USA LOSES TRUST & PRESTIGE


Although, as expected, the frightening threat of runaway global warming is virtually nowhere in the media, the importance of a Democratic victory in 2016 remains.  The ability to pass and implement polices to slow global warming as rapidly and as much as possible can only happen with a Democratic victory.

From the Los Angeles Times..."If Trump continues to tell his followers that the election system is ‘rigged’ ... the result could be months of chaos and years of bitterness."

THE ISSUES ARE: 
  1. Not only the change in U.S. policies and reduction of our warming gas emissions
  2. But ALSO our acceptance as the world leader in slowing global warming. 

We MUST HAVE the ability to act effectively with the community of nations to reduce worldwide warming gas emissions rapidly and radically. We CAN HAVE this ability with our Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, and equally important, a Democratic Congressional Majority!




To put it another way, the prestige of the U.S. must be great enough to make possible almost unthinkable radical worldwide energy changes. OUR PRESTIGE RESTS UPON our proven reliability, intelligence, trustworthiness, respectfulness, success, and achievement. 

Proven…until this election year with the Presidential nomination of a PROFOUNDLY inadequate and frightening Republican candidate, Donald Trump.




With this in mind, the Republican Presidential candidate and the Republican Party leadershiare undermining the possibility of U.S. leadership in the eyes of the international community of nations BY NOT EXPLICITLY, UNEQUIVOCALLY REJECTING THE IDEA THAT THE ELECTORAL SYSTEM IS UNTRUSTWORTHY; “RIGGED” IN SOME WAY BY THE MEDIA AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

The perception of the trustworthiness of our electoral system is not only crucial to the post election reactions in the U.S.,BUT ALSO TO THE POST ELECTION REACTIONS INTERNATIONALLY. That is, not only is the legitimacy of the election at issue but also the LEADERSHIP LEGITIMACY OF THE U.S. IN THE WORLD AT A TIME WHEN THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY IS AT STAKE!




BE AN ACTIVIST FOR THE SAKE OF THE FUTURE.



BE AN ACTIVIST HELPING DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES IN POSSIBLE “SWING” SENATE RACES where the billionaire and corporate networks are spending billions of dollars of dark money to save the Citizens United decision and their ability to “own” candidates and policy!

BE AN ACTIVIST HELPING DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES IN POSSIBLE “SWING” HOUSE SEATS – where fossil fuel billionaires and corporation networks are spending billions of dollars of dark money to protect their short-term profits and risk RUNAWAY GLOBAL WARMING!

VOTE STRAIGHT TICKET DEM 4 CLIMATE ACTION NOW!

We have the ultimate WORLDWIDE EMERGENCY!


6 examples of (increasing warming)positive feedback loops here.
As every second passes, more warming gases are accumulating in our atmosphere and increasing global warming. In addition to the emissions of warming gases that result directly from human activity, there are many natural physical consequences of warming (positive feedback loops) that are, in turn, increasing global warming further by, also releasing increasing amounts of warming gases into our atmosphere as global temperature increases.

We at the 12th hour in terms of runaway global warming when it can no longer be slowed by human activity, UNLESS the U.S. passes and implements the strongest possible policies to slow global warming and leads the worldwide community of nations in doing the same. 


VOTE OUT ALL GOP DENIERS!

WE DESPERATELY NEED AN ADMINISTRATION AND CONGRESS THAT WILL TAKE THE LEAD IN SLOWING GLOBAL WARMING.










We must lead in CLIMATE ACTION!

WE HAVE THE ULTIMATE WORLDWIDE EMERGENCY.

We MUST 
elect a DEMOCRATIC POTUS!

We must elect a DEMOCRATIC SENATE & HOUSE!
