Ralph Nader still telling us to vote our political conscience .... right on Ralph !


I voted my own political conscience when I voted for militant socialist Peter Camejo of the Socialist Workers Party in 1976. Years later I still voted my political conscience when I voted for the Green Party presidential team of Ralph Nader and Peter Camejo. That remarkable old radical Peter ( author of 60s cult classic pamphlet : " How to Make A Revolution in the United States " ) likened himself to a watermelon - green on the outside, red on the inside " ).

Like Nader I have been a critical supporter of " socialist " Democrat Bernie Sanders. I don't see how his " political revolution " can endorse " Harpy Wall St. Hillary ", the Queen of the Status quo.
In contrast to neo-Democrat devotion to fatuous " identity politics " , true democratic socialists will focus on the issue of unacceptable economic inequality in capitalist America.

They focus on economic class issues.If you feel well connected to the ONE PERCENT , you can vote your class interests by voting either for Hillary or " The Donald " .Racialism will get you nowhere in the 2016 presidential election.

As Ralph Nader said again and again both major parties represent and serve Corporate America.
But clearly Hillary Clinton is presently the favorite of Wall St. and the Pentagon.
