"Ask what you can do for your Country"


Still as true today, as it was forty plus years ago.

3. I will continue to oppose
centrism/corporatism; NAFTA/CAFTA; the Patriot Acts and all violations of civil liberties; war as an instrument of international policy; NCLB; and every other destructive policy I know of.

I will continue to fight for universal, single-payer, not-for-profit health care. For a living wage for all. To close the economic class gaps. And more.

That's what I'm willing to do for my country.
