1) As I said before, I don't and I can't have a candidate because I still don't vote in the US. So suppose I have no preference. It baffles me that the one female forerunner is ignored by the press;

#PresidentElizabethWarren
#PresidentWarren2020
#PresidentWarren
2) it baffles me that the only candidate that presented a detailed economic plan for implementing what, for reasons I can't understand, you, Americans, don't like to call "National Public Health System" (like most other countries).

3) Expert letter on cost:

4) Expert letter on financing:

5) Why is the press and other outlets ignoring her? Is it because she is a woman? Something makes me thing it is... I mean: they keep insisting on the dem race being lead by four white men while actually the four next to Sanders, including Warren, are technically on a tie.
6) Is it because she is too technical? So what, let's surf the authoritarian populist wave and choose the most "charismatic"? Careful with that axe, Eugine...
7) Whatever reason she is being ignored isn't acceptable to me. And please, don't come with A is more "socialist" than B because, apart from a few scholars and a few good journalists, I haven't met Americans who know what the word means. None of the candidates are socialists.

1. Today is the day when it's impossible to ignore the fact that Sanders doesn't embrace the concept of "democratic coalition", "front" or that we are fighting fascism (which requires broad alliances to defeat). And he's not a radical so.... what is he?
2. I know radical. I'm a 56 yr old Latin American social scientist who, at 15, had to accept she would never reach adulthood because I would die fighting fascism. All our countries were under fascist dictatorships.
3. I've seen radical. Radicals were just wrong in their political analysis: they believed we were already at a revolutionary stage and therefore should pick up arms and hit the streets (or the fields).

1) Americans who say "Russia is my enemy". An exercise in logic.
- what is the Russia you hate? Define in two words
- what do you reply to Latin Americans and Asians who claim that the "USA is my enemy because it installed dictatorships here"
- who is the USA?
- are you the USA?
2) In some time, the anti-fascist and pro-democracy Russian people, who presently die when they demonstrate, may want your support. Are you ready to tweet "all support to the Russian people"?
3) I was born in Brazil. I fought a RW dictatorship there. The fascist dictatorship was my enemy and I was prepared to die fighting it before adulthood. Now the country is ruled by a fascist mob again:
- Bolsonaro's fascist mob is my enemy
- the Brazilian people deserve my suport

1) What does an anti-fascist front look like in practice:

=> identify fascism. It should be easy.
=> everything that is NOT fascist should organize into a "front" or "coalition" with only ONE objective: to defeat fascism
2)
 => you won't like most of the members. I was raped and tortured in one organization in Brazil that, in thesis, should be part of the anti-fascist front (PSTU). Would I sit with them on the same table? ABSOLUTELY. Until we defeat fascism.
3)
=> the following day, they are my enemies again. My rape was not an "isolated case". They are so authoritarian that they actually helped empower fascism in Brazil by rejecting any alliance. But should they do it, YES, I would sit with them.

consider: Donald Duck visited both Duckburg and his friends elsewhere, but Mickey and Goofy never visited him in Duckburg
was this intentional
were they forbidden
were Goofy and Mickey enemies of the state? Or were outsiders forbidden from Duckburg?
it is implied that Scrooge McDuck’s presence alone moves an economy roughly the size of California’s, thus suggesting that he is perhaps a strongman, an oligarch who wields capital mercilessly
this suggests that whatever Mickey and Goofy did, it was against Scrooge

This November, millions of Americans’ access to health care is on the line. Each day from #100DaysOut to midterm elections, we’ll share the story of a Little Lobbyist who needs YOU to be a #HealthCareVoter for them. THREAD 0/100
#100DaysOut “Meet our kids and think of them when you vote. Our children deserve that.” @ElenaHung202 bsun.md/2LTlco6

This November, Xiomara's access to health care is #WhatsAtStake. She needs you to be a #HealthCareVoter. 1/100

Let’s add a little context to the discussion of voting security in the US. To do that, I’m going to do something Computer Scientists are bad at - I’m going to talk about history. Specifically, let’s look at the Help America #Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002. 1/
The reason to talk about HAVA is to start recognizing some of the challenges of paper ballot-based voting. HAVA came about largely because paper ballots were proving to be extremely difficult to manage. 2/
For instance, paper ballots are expensive (they’re not printed on standard college-rule paper), and they’re not reusable across elections. You’ve also got to try and guess who is going to show up to the poll, and how many ballots you’ll need in each language. 3/
