I don't know who he is so i can't say.------------------ Partial truth~the seeds of wisdom~can be found in many places...The seeds of wisdom are contained in all scriptures ever written… especially in art, music, and poetry and, above all, in Nature.

He won't run. He agrees with you. Richard Ojeda suspends his campaign for U.S. president JEFF MORRIS| January 25th 2019 CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WCHS/WVAH) — Richard Ojeda, who resigned from his 7th District West Virginia Senate seat to run for U.S. president, said he is suspending his campaign. Ojeda made the announcement Friday on his Facebook page. “Today I want to thank from the bottom of my heart all the people who have supported and believed in this campaign,” Ojeda said. “The indications were very positive from an overwhelming response to our videos, to thousands of volunteers, and a level of grassroots fundraising support that grew every day. However, the last thing I want to do is accept money from people who are struggling for a campaign that does not have the ability to compete. So today I am announcing that I am suspending this campaign.” http://wchstv.com/news/local/richard-ojeda-suspends-his-campaign-for-us-president

Thanks for the infoHere is the rest of his announcement : " When I was a child my grade school teachers told us all that anyone in America could grow up and become President. I now realize that this is not the case. Unless someone has extreme wealth or holds influence and power it just isn’t true. Especially if you dare to step out of line and challenge the powers that be. The big donors won’t take your calls, the media won’t say your name, and the establishment will do everything they can to crush you. I want you to know though that my fight does not end! I may not have the money to make the media pay attention but I will continue raising my voice and highlighting the issues the working class, the sick and the elderly face in this nation. I expect to have an announcement very soon about what my next steps will be. But know this, this campaign was never about me but about the issues we care about, checking big pharma, ending corruption and elevating the working class citizen. Nothing and no one can stop me from fighting for what’s right." IP: Logged |

I remember when the Dems went to bat for the working class, rather than demonizing them. Gosh that seems like a long time ago.IP: Logged |

Good god how old do you think I am! The Dems repudiation of the blue collar working class is legit one of the more startling political moves of the last 50 yrs. HUGE. IP: Logged |
