Why Vote and Why For Senator Sanders?

The first one, why vote, is a no brainer. First of all, there is no such thing as not voting. Not voting is voting! It is voting for whom ever you think is the worst possible option. But that is just a fact.

Actually, consciously not voting is an act of moral turpitude. Strong word! Yes it is. By choosing to not vote one not only gives ones free will to choose how things will unfold to others, but ignores the millions of brothers and sisters who have paid dearly, dearly for our Right to Vote.

Not voting for any of the other multitude of reasons non-voters come up with is, likewise, a sell-out of what Democracy is, and it is also revealing of one’ self-centered ignorance. We, Humanity, are a collective, a unified field of consciousness. There is no my good and your bad, my eat and your hunger, my wealth and comfort and your poverty and lack of shelter, health care, education, humanity.

Literally forever, or at least as long as we have any written records, our Hearts our poets, our Teachers, our composers and musicians, our heroes of legend and life all of them, not the least of which was Jesus, have been telling us that each of us is all of us and we should do unto others as we would do unto ourselves BECAUSE WE ARE our others. Nothing is separated from the whole. Because of gluttony and greed others of us starve. It is a simple cause and effect fact.

So, Vote. Take your best shot, but take it.

Now, why vote for Senator Sanders.

Well actually, the Senator is our best shot at a multitude of possibilities. He is our best shot mainly because he is putting the POSSIBILITIES on the table.
Senator Sanders is not interested in the “legacy” or glory of Senator Sanders.

No true friend of Humanity ever is interested in what history will say about them. A, because they are not self-centered to begin with. and B. because, going in, they realize the only outcome will probably involve their demise, in one way or another, which it usually always does.

Senator Sanders is putting his entire life on the line. Why? Not to be the President, but to gain the Inalienable Rights of Democracy for all of us, to wrench the keys of democracy, freedom, dignity, and justice for all, out of the hands of the Keepers of the Keys, those of a self-adulating nature and retrogressive bent who have always been with us and been trying to keep us under their locks as “prisoners of the Planet”.

Presently these prison wardens are known as the Corporate Establishment.

There are no half-way measures in evolution. Evolution is unavoidable. It will get Humanity to where it is intended to go. Senator Sanders is doing everything in his power to put a light on that path. We cannot advance through half-way measures. At best we can maintain the gains that were made by full throated (interesting energy statement) efforts of those Heroes who have got us this far.

It is interesting that Hillary, that is Sir Edmund Hillary, was not a half way kind of guy. He climbed to the top of Mount Everest in 1953.

To get to the top of the Mountain, one must go there. Halfway measures will not accomplish that end. But Evolution is not a friend of halfwayness. So, first of all vote for Senator Sanders in any primary your involved in.

At the end, we do not, not vote. The heart, not an ignorant observer, will always take the best shot to move the climb to the top of the Mountain forward.
lots of love
