If you don't like fundraising emails, unsubscribe from them. Money is how campaigns get their message out and like it or not, money is needed to defeat the GOP.

13 days until the election. Whining is not needed.

I unsubscribed from them all this season. I've been on the lists for a long time, but they started early and heavy this year and I realized I have no interest in supporting them. I'll stick to my individual candidates in my own state and that's about it.

Bernies letter excerpt:

The Koch Brothers and other billionaires are pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into negative campaigns. Corporate campaign cash, once outlawed in America, is tilting the playing field. In California, Chevron shelled out at least $3 million to buy friends at city hall in Richmond, a Bay Area city that’s home to a giant petroleum refinery. Untraceable “dark money” is being spent elsewhere. Voter ID laws are keeping people away from polling places. Are we going to let them get away with it? Experts say 60 percent of Americans will not vote on Nov. 4. Eighty percent of low-income workers won’t vote. “That's not democracy. That's oligarchy,” said Bernie. “We must educate, organize, overturn Citizens United and move toward public funding of elections.”


I love Bernie. He's right. I like this part and I sense a little righteous anger, as we all should be angry "Are we going to let them get away with it?" Fuck no. Unsubscribe from all that negative fear shit. I'm angry with Bernie.

FUCK FEAR

I was getting occasional emails up to about a year ago when I removed my name from the county Democratic Party's list, and haven't had a single one in quite a while. It sounds as if I acted not a moment too soon.

Is this an Algorithmic Bot or something sending this stuff? It can't be human.
