I realize there are many Kossacks with strong passions for or against our contenders for the Democratic nomination. Both have positions and beliefs which I support but I also am not quite aligned with either in at least one or two things. Nevertheless, I think it's pretty clear who needs our firm support in the nomination. Just look at this table and you can see who should be the winner:
|
My Candidate |
Republikklowns |
Protect abortion rights |
|
|
Uphold marriage equality |
|
|
Separate church and state |
|
|
Increase voter participation rather than restrict it |
|
|
Maintain and expand Obamacare |
|
|
Build up and fund public schools, not vouchers |
|
|
Expand use of green energy sources |
|
|
Increase taxes on the wealthiest
|
|
|
Protect Social Security from privatization |
|
|
Keep the EPA working to protect our environment |
|
|
Provide a pathway to citizenship for immigrants |
|

Yes, today on Thanksgiving, I am thankful for my candidate, Billarnie Clinders. Of course, should Billarnie not win the nomination in the primary, I will unhesitatingly and proudly support Hernary Santon in the general election against whichever of the Republicans survives their gnaw-the-head-off-live-chickens contest to prove he or she is the most deranged of them all.
Happy Thanksgiving, Kossacks!
