'We Have a Systems Problem': New Project for Deep Solutions, Radical Transformation

[sabrina 1]

12. Good post. To go up against the current, entrenched and obscenely financed system, is pretty much

impossible. I liked Stein's positions on the issues, but few voters were able to hear her.

Which is why I am for USING the current system from the inside in order to be heard.

And running for President is not the way to go. There is no way to win the WH outside the two party system.

Anything that is done to try to change the current system, needs to be done with the goal of WINNING. Not 'sending a message'. If no one hears the message, what is the point?

Run in local elections first where it is more possible to be heard AND win.

Then run for Congress once you have built both a base and a record of working for the people.

Doing this all over the country, which btw, has already begun with some pretty impressive results, will build from the bottom up.

Imo, Congress is FAR MORE IMPORTANT than the WH.

That is where the people have some power. We have ZERO power over the WH.

So I guess what I'm saying is that running for the WH when no one has ever heard of you, nor is the Corporate media ever going to cover such races, is a huge waste of time and energy.

Go for goals that can be accomplished.
