LAST DAYS

There are still Americans undecided about whom they are going to vote for. They've been either very busy, very preoccupied or otherwise out of the loop (probably a smart thing). And they may be the most important voters these last days.

As they turn their attention to the election what do they see? 2 major candidates most people don't like. One worse than the other so goes the rhetoric. One more criminal than the other. So goes the speechifying. It takes deep dig to find actual policy stances.

Well, I'd like to tell them I'm not voting for Trump for the sake of my granddaughters. I don't want them living in the male chauvinistic culture he would bring to the White House. Let alone the veiled racism, cultural hatred and just way too much vitriol, name-calling (for God sakes) and playground bullying. But the sexual assault history alone disqualifies this fool (even if just talk).

One more thing. He wants to end Fed investment in developing clean energy. That doesn't even make any business sense. Let alone the US leading the world in another tech. Let alone cleaning the environment. Let alone slowing global warming. Where is this guy's common sense? Or care for the future lives of our children and their children? Um, besides, the Fed still feeds the fossil fuel industry at least $4B/year. And we sure know they need that.

O, just one more thing. Hillary left office four years ago. And the FBI is just now getting around to investigating her emails and Clinton Foundation? Really. Is that how our country works?

Happy Saturday, pards. May we be well and full of soul and light.
