The whirligig of calamity will not deter me (#3199)

     As we get close to another important midterm election the stakes have been raised by some who would distract us from our focus on building a wave election in 2018. The culprits have an agenda whether their own or of those who control their actions, regardless the mess they stir is not about to claim me from my mission of advocacy for the liberal/progressive agenda. I will as well continue to debunk the claims of the conservative republicans who think that they can continue to bamboozle the American electorate. We know now that Russia used a campaign of false information dressed up as legitimate and manipulated our media as its vehicle to cause dissent in our Democratic party. We are now even seeing some Democrats being selfish in their own agendas regardless of the harm they are causing.
     Still I will not stoop to their bait. I remain vigilant and convinced that the liberal/progressive ideal is the best for not only American citizens but for democracy itself. When we are all included in fair and opportune policies and programs then we all share in our nation's growth. We are the means by which democracy and equality exist in the first place as we have seen the conservative republicans wish nothing more than a two class system, the wealthy and the poor. This is not democracy nor is it democracy lite. It is class warfare to undermine democracy and instead promote a wealth backed autocratic system. Our forefathers and foremothers did not fight all these centuries to see a gang of thugs come into our government to destroy the values they gave their lives for and neither will I.
     So despite the onslaught of negative media, yellow journalism and corruptible jingoism I remain vigilant in fighting for equality, opportunity and fairness within our democracy and fight against all that would snip at democracy's heels. Nothing will stop what is left of my life from being a patriot to American democracy at it's core and what had made us the greatest nation on Earth up until the controversial election of trump last November. We can still reclaim our greatness but we must purge the vile poison of conservative republicanism from our political life blood. The time is coming in 4 days where we begin that purge and it starts in the great states of New Jersey and Virginia. Nothing will deter me and neither should nothing deter all the rest of us toward building that wave that will sweep republicans from office continuing on toward 2018.
