Fierce Battle for State Assembly Between Socialist and Obama Staffer in Richmond, CA

1. Wish I could vote for her! Great endorsement from Barbara Lee. Much luck!

2. How do you pay for it? The same way you pay for the military-industrial-congressional complex.

3. And a link to support her would be nice

4. Put her name on the title please

5. Off the jump I like her. Practical hair. Natural voice not pitched for force but relaxed and easy. Simple facts. Down to Earth but highly skilled and highly qualified. I'm not impressed by all of the new " progressives". She impresses. I hope people get to know her. Some candidates need to hide and go for name recognition. The more I learn of this woman the better I love her.

6. Obama staffer? You mean establishment dinge.

7. did not hitler create a socialist party called the brown shirts then 4 + YEARS LATER WORLD WAR TWO MILLIONS DIED SO DO IT ALL AGAIN THINK AGAIN ABOUT MAD STATES ON THIS PLANET AND SO CALLED DO GOOD DEEDS PEOPLE FOR PROFIT THAT IS CALIFORNIA USA NEED TO GIVE IT BACK TO THE COUNTRY IT STOLE IT FROM MEXICO

8. Please accepr the tag xommunist as a compliment. The fact thay it's all messed up todsy is necause of the naivety of the mass of people. Swallowing the line of the capatolists hook line and now sinker. Keep denying the truth about the human condition and it will definitely sink before it can be saved

9. Pray those bastard democrats don’t silence her!

10. OMG she’s fantastic! Patriot, superhero, human being, light & love! 🙏🏻 made my day before I leave for one of my 3 jobs!

11. I hate to see people legitimize the (un)Democratic party by running in it, saying they can change it.
    It is a capitalist party, and WILL NOT CHANGE.
    Even under FDR, the "Democratic" party did not change. It stayed capitalist, setting us up for today. FDR himself, stated that he SAVED the capitalist system.
    The Dem's appropriated the word "democracy" for their party, but their theft of the 2016 primary should make it clear they are not democratic.
    They are a CAPITALIST party, defending an undemocratic economic system.
    Socialism would apply democratic principles to the economic sphere of life.
    Malcolm X said a chicken will never lay a duck egg.
    A capitalist party will not allow you to have socialism.

12. Is time to elect Richmond, California, Councilperson Jovanka Beckles she will work for all of us

13. Obummer gave us Chump and Kavanaugh…
    Ya think????!!!!! It's all about Obummer – just as it always has been.
    Here's what you need to know about Obummer. And without the slightest exceptions – at ANY point in time. Everything he does and is doing now…EVERYTHING, is for one reason and one reason only: to SAVE HIS PALTRY LEGACY…or what he "thinks" he built as a legacy; which is entirely feckless. No fan of McCain, but he had it spot on. It's all about Obummer now. EVERY WORD THAT COMES OUT OF HIS feckless mouth. EVERY WORD.
    Proof this charade is still going on and he's trying to "out-slick" "slick-Willy?"
    When he gave that "vote…anti-trump" speech puke the other day he said the following (paraphrase): "…These guys are going around campaigning for Medicare For all and tuition forgiveness…etc."
    Knowing full well he DOES NOT support those and NEVER will. But notice how he "uses" the words. To slick-willy like, let the people take it any way they want. And guess what the lemmings do? Take it and run with it believing he actually supports it…just like he'll "put on a soft-shoe" and go march with the unions…
    TOTAL BULLSHIT. Yet MILLIONS of morons (every bit as moronic as Chump moron's) take it – hook, line and sinker.
    Pathetic!

14. Since most people are stupid and run off of emotions, it would help to have visual aids. When politicians like Buffy say they should just keep building private homes to fix everything, it would help to show a map of the town- all of it's empty private homes, populations of homeless, and public housing (all in different colors, of course).

15. Is one of the tactics of the Establishment Democrats to dilute the vote in favor of their choice by having numerous democrats running in the same race?

    Are people who vote for Establishment Democrats content in their belief that their failed ventures will somehow deliver solutions?

    Is it a characteristic of Establishment Democrats that they are blind to (or worse aligned to) the failures of character of their Establishment Democrat heroes and heroines ?

    What is progressive about repeatedly applying dirty politics as a claimant to virtuous and righteous representative governing?
    What is progressive about repeatedly banging what is not a nail with what is not a hammer?
    What is progressive about lying about and fawning over false heroes?

    Aren't these all the same old – same old?

    All the money in the world, all the tributes, all the hijacking or rhetoric will not mask the stink of the Establishment Democrats, nor perform any alchemy that converts a turd into a bar of soap.

    Let us Progress together, or surely we will continue to sink deeper under the corrupt and wealthy. For me, I don't find it any more appealing that the new slave masters are Establishment Democrats.

    They were at one time the fathers of Slavery as the king of American Commerce in America. Now they seem to be the family of greed, as bad as the worst of the Republicans.

    People who consider themselves Democrats need to understand that division will hand Trump and his ilk, six more years of power, (six more years, and countless years for the Court), a continuation of our planet into certain doom, a continuation of war crimes, a continuation of the atrocity against families and children on our borders, a continuation of corporate rights our citizens, a continuation of the spread of the contamination of our land, waters, seas, homes, and schools, a continuation of the destruction of our educational system, a continuation of the increase in price and decrease in quality of healthcare, and continuing gentrification of our towns and cities, a continuing exodus of blue collar industry and employee rights, a continuing renaissance of open racism, bigotry, xenophobia, and persecution, a continuing lack of debate on the rights of the unborn, not just the rights of women, and a continuation of the continuing of our utter metamorphosis into a fascist state.

    Chicago.

    Not to neglect the continuation of racist prison industry, the stupid-ass war on drugs, the moronic lack of legal recourse against criminals in the banking, chemical, pharmaceutical, political, and religious industries. And war, war, war, war, and war and all the Satanic suffering it brings.

    All of these flourished under Establishment Democrat President Obama, Clinton, Carter, Johnson, and Kennedy and associated Establishment Democrat Houses and (seperate but owned and operated by) Courts and increased under subsequent Republicans.

    Hoping (wasn't that word desecrated enough?) that Establishment Democrats are about positive change is a fool's errand.

    We have a choice between a fast and slow demise. And that choice is PROGRESS!

16. The US does not need to be socialist.
    The US just needs to become one nation by providing justice through reperations to the one group in this country that actually built the wealth of this country and that has been perpetually oppressed by public policy and that have also been the only group to not recieve reparations from this government.
    That group is the native (non-immigrant) black Americans whose ancestors were enslaved, raped, robbed, and oppressed as a matter of government policy to make America Great.
    That would close the only truly unnatural wealth gap that exist in this country, and that would lead to a closing of the others gaps.

17. Jovanka will win!

18. it is amazing how quickly the Clinton/ Obama neo-liberal philosophy and ideology has became irrelevant

19. The degree to which people over profit resonates is contingent upon this system warding off impending collapse.. Ms. Beckles would get my vote regardless of whether she is a Green. I've enjoyed being white but not enough to embrace a Buffy stereotype. However, it does make sense in an Obama context where TPP is deemed unfinished business and a bankster bailout was the first inverted debt jubilee in history..

20. Unfortunately there are a lot of very stupid people that actually belong in a dictatorship then the burden of thinking and voting is no longer something they have to deal with. I don't think you will win because of their large numbers. They have succeeded in dumbing down the population. But I totally agree with you and support your ideas.

21. Phenomenal candidate. My new vision board is going to have a version where I relocate to the most progressive Richmond C.A.!
