A vote for Democracy is a vote to keep your vote. A vote for Gop is the last time you will have rhe right to vote.

We need a new award show -- Alchemy Awards... and the winner is: All of Us...

Instead of Biden OR Trump... make them work together, under a council of wise-women. Find and empower the circle-facilitators who stir the alchemical mix and make it happen.

Why an advisory position for Marianne Williamson? She is an inspiration for those who have heard her speak and has the authority of a leader. If you read her policies at www.marianne2024.com you will see she is deeply prepared for the presidency.

It’s sad to see how divided you are south of the boarder. Having gone to grad school in California from 2016-2019, and seeing firsthand some of unsavoury aspects being done in the name of progressiveness — I can see why people on the right equally see the 2024 election as a fight to save democracy.

I truly hope you all come together and get it figured out before the repercussions boil over into Canada.

I’m with you on this. I can’t get it off my mind, either. I don’t feel it’s necessarily a “hold-my-nose” choice with Biden, but rather a (desperate) hope that enough people will reject Trump and give us whatever time it takes to form some sort of new government with the conundrum we’re in, politically, economically and sociologically. It’s obviously time for massive change, and I’m at a complete loss for a logical conclusion…like we’re on that Titanic of a different kind and era, and at least we’re looking for the icebergs but aren’t organized enough to take the helm. 🫣

I see what she sees, and I'm terrified. We need to do two things: one, start elevating s good candidate .now. for 28, assuming we get an election in 28. If we're going to run someone different this year I don't know how we do it since the primaries have happened. We don't have the structure for a third.party candidate. The time to run a different Dem was in January before the primaries. I suppose we could see if there's a way to get the DNC to nominate someone else but as she says it needs to be a shoe in. Operas would be an interesting choice. I don't trust Williamson. But honestly if we're going to win this one we need someone even the centrist conservatives will get behind and I don't know who that is. I would have backed Beto O'Rourke but he's clearly gone a different route. I think many of us would happily back a good someone else but we need that someone else. I wish I knew why Biden didn't tell the DNC to get moving on a new candidate as soon as he took office.

Great article. She’s got it right from my perspective. However, I think Biden has done a great job given all he’s had to deal with the congress he has. I vote for him happily. Adonnah

It amazes me that anyone can look at tfg with anything except shock and horror and then turn to Biden and see anything other than someone who has pulled a rabbit out of the hat in spite of being surrounded by flame throwers.

Give me a guy with character and experience backed by a strong woman any day of the week ... especially on Tuesday, Nov 5, 2024.
