YES, I'M YELLIN...WHAT A F***KING HYPOCRITE!!!!! YES, I'M YELLING!<br /><br />The reason I'm so upset is that I recalled reading a post by Ralph Nader a couple of months ago about how Obama has consistently refused to meet with activist groups despite numerous requests. Instead he met frequently with groups of fat cat$ while calling us 'sanctimonious purists' and throwing us all under the bus. MLK's 'firece urgency of now' was also thrown under the bus after he won the election. <br /><br />The reason this is all coming back to me now after reading this Sardonicky post is not just because Obama is hypocritically telling the BLM kids to shut up and sit down, but because Ralph Nader, my hero, is doing something that doesn't even include the powermongers. Yay! <br /><br />At 82 years old, activist Nader is organizing an event called 'Breaking Through Power', a gathering of public interest organizers, advocates, experts, and concerned citizens. This event could serve as the real kickoff of the political revolution. It will be held during 4 days in May at historic Constitution Hall in Washington D.C. <br /><br />https://www.breakingthroughpower.org/<br /><br />As far as I'm concerned, Nader's still the real leader of the political revolution and has been for decades, but he's had to patiently wait for the movement to catch up with him. He's always kept in communication with activist leaders and tried to coordinate their organizations into a movement. <br /><br />The saddest part is that it's not just Obama who has refused to meet with activist leaders and organizations. Bernie Sanders has also refused to even return phone calls from Ralph Nader, Jill Stein, et al. That's one of main reasons it's been difficult for me to believe Bernie's true intentions even while supporting his cause. I trust Nader's intentions implicitly. <br /><br />To read Nader's latest post, 'Breaking Through Power: Historic Civic Mobilization Now', go to: <br /><br />http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/04/25/breaking-through-power-historic-civil-mobilization-now/ <br /><br />or <br /><br />https://blog.nader.org/annenigmanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-3914219161658267002016-04-24T17:10:58.737-04:002016-04-24T17:10:58.737-04:00More promising would be to forward entries like th...More promising would be to forward entries like this latest from KG to Bernie as he is the most sympathetic of establishment politicians with a national platform. He needs to be prodded <br />to become a genuine movement leader and inspire a change in DNC fear from that of him becoming the Democratic nominee to that of him not becoming the nominee.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-88951619002512875902016-04-24T12:37:44.739-04:002016-04-24T12:37:44.739-04:00Here's the address for the President:

Cost: 1 minute of your day. Maybe there's a 0.001% chance one of us will get through.<br /><br />This essay has got to be one of the most imaginative responses to the very comfortable who, from their champagne bubbles of luxury, look down upon the impoverished and the afflicted only to urge gradualism, civility and moderation in climbing out of the pit of poverty, disease and oppression, a hell into which the very comfortable have pushed them.Jay–Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360356126450612113noreply@blogger.com
