Disillusioned by #DonaldTrump and uninspired by #JoeBiden? I'm a dual citizen of the US & the Navajo Nation running as an independent candidate for POTUS. I announced May 2019 & my vision is to build a nation where We the People truly means #AllThePeople. markcharles2020.com/allthepeople
I'm the only candidate whose platform includes abolishing slavery and my plan for my first 100 days in office is to remove the racist, sexist, and white supremacist language from the US Constitution. markcharles2020.com/marks-blog/fir…
Here is a video detailing the reasons behind my proposal to edit the US Constitution.
I am a Christian but have no intention to legislate the theologies of my faith. Here is a video of me discussing the danger of Joe Biden characterizing the United States' injustice of enslavement and genocide as 'sin'.

"The Founding Fathers could use the seemingly inclusive term 'all men' because they had a worldview informed by the Doctrine of Discovery that gave them a very narrow definition of who was actually human.

"The Declaration of Independence reflects the theological imagination of its time. The Doctrine of Discovery and the myth of Anglo-Saxon superiority girds the imagination that elevates the white body, mind, language and culture.

This pattern is familiar:
US & X sign a treaty.
US pulls out of treaty & imposes sanctions.
X ceases to comply w/ broken treaty.
US decides to rejoin treaty but refuses to negotiate until X is in compliance.
X demands US drop sanctions imposed after we broke treaty.
US refuses.
Perhaps it's worth considering that other countries dislike the US, not because we're free, but because we negotiate with most of the world like they're children and we're their parent.
Just because @JoeBiden is nicer than #DonaldTrump, it doesn't mean his foreign policy is any less colonial/parental. Remember, the myth of American exceptionalism is a bipartisan value.
#ForThePeopleAct raises amt a national party can contribute to a POTUS candidate to $100,000,000. This ensures major party candidates will have a 100 million dollar advantage over 3rd party & independent candidates. #GOP limits voters #DEMS limit candidates
BOTH limit democracy
For comparison: The previous limit was "2 cents multiplied by the voting age population of the United States". In 2020 the voting age population was approximately 239 million, making the max contribution just under 5 million.
The max donation allowed by an individual to a National Party is $36,500 /year. So if I'm understanding this correctly, this means that for GOP & DEMS, 2,740 people will be able to increase their donation to directly benefit a single presidential candidate from $2,900 to $39,400.
The first lecture was streamed at 10 AM and is available on our campaign YouTube channel:
Doctrine of Discovery: (1 of 4) From the teachings of Jesus to a dehumanizing Doctrine of Discovery
The Second was streamed at Noon ET and was titled:
Doctrine of Discovery Part 2: Embedded in our foundations and demonstrated in our history.
@JoeAbuku@senatemajldr@SpeakerPelosi@realDonaldTrump@JoeBiden My position is @senatemajldr blocked a DEM nominee in 2016 & justified it by saying he wanted to give the American people a chance to speak. He didn't have the courage to state his real reason which was that he had power & wanted to thwart our nation's first black President.
@JoeAbuku@senatemajldr@SpeakerPelosi@realDonaldTrump@JoeBiden B/c @senatemajldr acted cowardly & tried to present his motivation as more noble than it was, he should now act with integrity and once again give the American people a chance to speak. Had he been honest in 2016 he could do what he's doing today & at least he'd be consistent.
@JoeAbuku@senatemajldr@SpeakerPelosi@realDonaldTrump@JoeBiden In regards to the general question of confirming a SCOTUS nominee in the final year of a presidential term, I believe a President is elected for a four year term and maintains the full power and authority of that office until a new President is sworn in...
