Hell to the yes!!!!

Now tap Tulsi Gabbard as your VP! She's brilliant, level headed and can pull some serious weight with women, veterans and centrist Rep/Dem voters.

This is going to throw a gigantic monkey wrench in the DNC strategy. They must be in free fall panic as we speak.

I can already hear the corporate media, RNC, DNC & big tech colluding to put together the scorched earth campaign that will be launched presently.....

I'd actually rather see Tulsi as Secretary of Defense and Dennis Kucinich as the head of a newly-christened Department of Peace. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Department_of_Peace

Tulsa would have a tough time getting confirmed as secretary of defense when all of the Democrats and most of the Republicans are currently warmongers. She's an ideal VP pick. I think she's still pretty popular in Hawaii despite the best efforts of the DNC which means she could possibly turn that state. She's already run for president ones, and she has the same sort of bipartisan appeal as RFK. Also shares his somewhat eclectic policy positions that cut across the political spectrum.

Good point. This leads to the question of whether an independent RFK Jr as president will be able to get much of anything through a hostile congress where both legacy parties (they are already dead to me) will not only be against him but will likely collaborate to make him fail for wrecking their little game.

Some other fantasy picks:

Fed Chair: Max Keiser

Treasury Secretary or Head of SEC: Michael Saylor

FCC Chairman: Jimmy Dore

Fed chair Michael Hudson. Keiser is a goldbug and will crash our economy.

Treasury secy Stephanie Kelton

attorney general WIlliam Black.

I'd keep Lina Khan at the FTC

and sure, FCC chair Jimmy Dore :)

Which is the same thing as a goldbug. He thinks fiat currency is the enemy of mankind. And in a way, I agree with him. I just don't think we can put that particular genie back in the bottle and even if we did, the idea that things were all peachy when we were on the gold standard is nonsense. Just trading one set of horrible problems for another.

The real problem is who is in control of currency printing, where they deliver it to and what logic they use to do justify it - not whether we impose un-breachable limits on money printing.

The difference between her and Bobby is that she is reportedly a terrible person. This from former staff members who quit her campaign in disgust.

She’ has zero ideas and is unrealistic. Naomi Wolf, Tucker, Eric Epstein, Shellenberger, Taibbi, Asra Nomani,Hotep Jesus… mix it up. Tucker is the one who brought them all to the limelight and started the new alliance. I’m sick of the right/left paradigm. Give everybody a voice Tear down the whole construct. Tucker brought Bobby to the public eye. Thank God

The problem is that Williamson has too many ideas. Looking at her policy proposals, there are so many unrealistic ones it's hard to choose the worst.

She's a visionary!! If you don't start with big visions and ideas, you have no guideposts or targets to aim toward. That's what Marianne brings. Most great progress began with 'unrealistic' big ideas. Like ending slavery in this country, for starters. Denigrating her because we can't see or appreciate the bigger picture doesn't help us.

Rob Landeros's avatar

I am trying not to unduly denigrate her. I am just sharing some downsides to her character that have been credibly reported.

She is welcomed to bring her big visions and ideas to the public as far as I am concerned. Having read through her policy positions, I prefer that she not govern as POTUS or VP.

Really? So you believe in those gossips, rumors, secrets, lies, comments and whispers behind your back? Do you have something else to say against her?

Rob Landeros's avatar

The recent letter from 12 former staff members was unsigned, which should be taken into consideration. But the fact that they all chose to quit says quite a lot. I have no reason to disbelieve what has been reported. But such reports go back to 2019 at which time there were state campaign directors who did publicly go on record with similar allegations.

"I have no reason to disbelieve what has been reported."

There is every reason to disbelieve anything besides the weather being reported by the captured and corrupted mainstream media. Read The Grey Lady Winked to see how far MSM corruption and misreporting goes back, and how it disastrous it has been for world events and swaying public opinion in the wrong direction. I suggest being skeptical about mainstream reports, and seeking truthful information elsewhere, such as from CHD, Brownstone Institute, Epoch Times, Daily Clout, Mercola and numerous Substack writers who have the integrity and fortitude to share truth.

Rob Landeros's avatar

I did not get my information about Williamson from mainstream media. I got it, in fact, from alternative media. Probably from Due Dissidence and Jimmy Dore. I am not only skeptical of mainstream media, I pretty much regard anything they report to be propaganda or outright lies.

I don't need a lecture about which news sources are credible and which are not. Among the more credible are those that you cite. I am a donator to CHD and The Highwire, a paid subscriber to Brownstone, Matt Taibbi, Caitlin Brownstone, El Gato Malo, Mark Crispin Miller, Margaret Anna Alice, Coffee & Covid, The Free Press, and of course The Kennedy Beacon.

DNC along with establishment and legacy media finds it easier to sabotage Marianne's campaign than RFK Jr's. So they do. The stress must be incredible. She has GREAT ideas!!! Her vision for where we *could* be to recover ourselves is unmatched, even by RFK Jr. His campaign would do well to appreciate the bigger vision for peace and general well-being she brings. However, establishment, DNC, et al know that RFK Jr is the real threat to their power... and he is. All in for Kennedy24!!!

My information on them using her picture without her consent and her calling them out for it is second hand, but supposedly she was listed as one of the "community" of the WEF's affiliate Forum of Young Global Leaders.

https://www.younggloballeaders.org/community?q=a&x=0&y=0

This is a large group: 105 pages of names with portraits, each page with a dozen. I didn't click through all of that, but I tried entering her name in the search field and got nothing. The picture in the heading looks like it could be her, though, perhaps some years ago. I can't be sure. I compared it with pictures of her and the teeth don't quite match. Also, she's not young anymore.

Or maybe it had to do with this Facebook post on the WEF's page, about "Humane leadership".

https://www.facebook.com/7746841478/posts/wheres-the-humanity/10156474837826479/

Looks like there was a picture there but it's been deleted. I found the page by doing a search for "use of marianne williamson picture by WEF?"

No. She says what she truly believes and those for whom her words and visions resonate because they share and appreciate those insights support her for her courage to express them. Same as what RFK Jr is doing. What he says resonates with many of us, so we embrace him because he's also authentic.

His Israel views are not radical as pro-Palestine folks claim. They're in line with his uncle and father and it comes from an understanding of historical perspective. He's quite sympathetic toward Palestinians too and he criticized the Israel govt's judicial reform as a threat to democracy

I'm raising my glass to the bravery of RFK Jr. tonight to abandon the duopoly and chart the new course that America so desperately needs. It's an entirely new feeling for me to feel anything other than despair about a presidential election, and I'm no youngster either. Been of voting age for 8 of them so far, so for me, here's hoping it'll be Revolution #9.
