This is a chant we were using in all the protests in 2002. I know it is much older....

It is a phrase that i have had repeating in my head lots the last couple of days at DU.

I believe we need to quit arguing so much, we need to stop denigrating each of our very viable candidates. We as Dems, independents, Democratic Socialists, let us celebrate the candidates we have!! Peace.....

On edit, thanks for correcting me.

in the May march on the Pentagon, protesting the American funding for the right-wing El Salvador government, and the bloated defense budget...
