Do You Want Peace Or War? Put It To A Vote For The American People To Decide....

Let the American People have their say
on this Iranian deal. The Repugs are on the wrong side of history on this and just about every other issue. They always say 'that the majority of the America People favor their position'. Well let's find out and let the American People vote on this deal.

The American people voted in a Republican majority in both Houses of Congress.

We had an election and only around 38% or so decided to vote, and the majority of that 38% happened to be republicans. If we can't get people out to vote we lose and republican win. Not voting got us into this mess. I hope those who sit home are happy now, but I kind of doubt it.

This should be a special vote and we the American People should decide. I don't want any more of our kids fighting a war for oil, money, etc for the 1%ers benefit. We are war weary. We learned our lesson listening to the lies of BushCo. We are seeing the treasonous ways of the Repugs and we can't be taken down that path. Yes - the Repugs won the House & Senate but our President won two terms. I trust my President. I don't trust the Repugs or Bibi.

This is the most important issue that has faced the world and our reputation as a Nation is at stake.

Don't let the Repugs sandbag this because they don't respect our President or the office of the Presidency.

...you just might get it.

There are an astonishing number of Americans who support military violence. Just tell them it's to prevent "genocide" (e.g. Libya, Syria) and bombs away!
