I realize there are many Kossacks with strong passions for or against our contenders for the Democratic nomination. Both have positions and beliefs which I support but I also am not quite aligned with either in at least one or two things. Nevertheless, I think it's pretty clear who needs our firm support in the nomination. Just look at this table and you can see who should be the winner:
| Protect abortion rights | ||
| Uphold marriage equality | ||
| Separate church and state | ||
| Increase voter participation rather than restrict it | ||
| Maintain and expand Obamacare | ||
| Build up and fund public schools, not vouchers | ||
| Expand use of green energy sources | ||
Increase taxes on the wealthiest | ||
| Protect Social Security from privatization | ||
| Keep the EPA working to protect our environment | ||
| Provide a pathway to citizenship for immigrants |
Yes, today on Thanksgiving, I am thankful for my candidate, Billarnie Clinders. Of course, should Billarnie not win the nomination in the primary, I will unhesitatingly and proudly support Hernary Santon in the general election against whichever of the Republicans survives their gnaw-the-head-off-live-chickens contest to prove he or she is the most deranged of them all.
Happy Thanksgiving, Kossacks!
