In all the 20/20 elections, please keep in mind that our president is a symptom, not the cause, of all our ills. Not excusing his bad behavior nor suggesting we don't need to treat the symptoms, but defeating him by itself is neither a treatment nor a cure for the disease that will continue to worsen if we do not seriously address the deep systemic causes:
- economic injustice;
- threats to democracy, election integrity, civil discourse, the environment, health care, and education;
- tribalisms including racism, ethnicism, sexism, and homophobia;
- endless wars;
- and more.
Look for candidates who can best understand and work to solve these crisis problems with bold systemic and cultural reforms.
