Bernie Sanders On Brazil:Coup d’état !

[Sir X]

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders yesterday denounced in harsh terms the impeachment of Brazil’s democratically elected president. As the Brazilian Senate heads toward a final vote later this month, Sanders described his position, set forth in a statement posted on his Senate site, as “calling on the United States to take a definitive stand against efforts to remove Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff from office.” He added: “To many Brazilians and observers the controversial impeachment process more closely resembles a coup d’état.”

Isn't this the same thing Hillary is being accused of -- putting the US's nose into other countries' business?

LOL! I'm sure he's aware that this is a US backed regime change op. The current president has longstanding "ties" to US intelligence

[Sir X]

The silence from Prezi is dissapointing.

No. There's a huge difference between merely making critical comments on a democratically elected leader being deposed.... and being party to regime change ops.

The first is exercising free speech ...and the second is exercising political corruption.

Killary represents #2 literally and figuratively. She full of it

It is to be expected. The US is backing the opposition and is for regime change. They just can't openly say it...because Dilma has done NOTHING wrong. Obomber doesn't want to be a public hypocrite if he can help it

This op is aimed at stopping BRICS and its plans for an alternate financial system not dependent on the West

Independence is a big no-no. It's the Babylon way or the highway

Myopoic thinking on their part ,some things you cant stop ,more likely to hasten it once the barrier breaks .

America has one weapon left in the world and its trade and its link to democracy ,going to war on the pretence of advocating democracy is fast becoming a financial drain to its economy besides ignoring it only opens the door for the chinese to fill the vacum,more proof of a myopic vision.

LOL...war is a financial drain? Upon whom? The "little people" and the US treasury fo' sure

But it's big corporations and the Military Industrial Complex dat run di place....They actually REQUIRE war & chaos when things don't go their way. That's where super-profits and global domination stem from

Other powers are rising (e.g. Brazil, China, Russia) and trying to assert their "independence" ...what the West calls "aggression"

But those that have nuclear weapons and the ability to deliver them will not be pushed around. Brazil doesn't...suh dem ah fryas

Buckle up...turbulence ahead

[Sir X]

The "little people" have something called a vote exercised in a ballot box and its not reserved for America.

When little people start guh hungry ,cc Bernism and Trumpism corporations get worried,that too isnt reserved for America.

There is a change going on ,in the world and i believe people are tired of corporations waging war.

[Don1]

When I see the change in process...and not mere yappin...then I'll believe. Voting may be important but when the congresspeople and president are owned by big money and corporations write legislation....voting is ineffectual

Otherwise it's just business as usual. The political shitstem is bought and paid for by big corporations an' mi nuh si dat ah change fi now. The time to have done that shift was during the 2008-2009 Great Recession... like Roosevelt did in the 1930s Great Depression. Big Crisis = Big Opportunity....

But Obama dropped the ball

Killary basically represents more of the same....but expect more warfare & regime change ops from dat as compared to Obama

[Sir X]

I see change,the Bern and Trumpsters werent flukes ,granted they didnt get what they would like , but you cant deny they moved Killary left on some positions and the repugs to the extreme right in others and I dont think they will stop moving them , how it plays out in the future gives me a pause for hope.

I am not the realist you are , hiding behind your pessimistic cloak..hehe .Trump will lose , Hillary will win and she will be held to the Bern or risk the wrath of being a one term president like Portia was a 1 term P.M.

* Criminal Justice reform
* College assistance (debt forgiveness or write off)
* Regulate wall street
* Stay the hell out of the middle east and and afghanistan (No troops on the ground)
* Grow the economy.

Pollyannaish

Mi nuh follow fables or rhetoric...just current data & history

But at the end of the day the progress of Black people is not based on dis or dat president....and our progress is my primary concern.
