Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: Jill Stein for Hillary Jill Stein for Hillary by Stephen Lendman Shameful! Whats going on? Why did her campaign announce its intent to file for a recount of votes in the battleground states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, leading a multi-partisan effort to check the accuracy of the machine-counted vote tallies in these states in order to ensure the integrity of our election? Did she forget Hillary criticizing Trumps possible refusal to accept electoral results when asked, calling it a direct threat to our democracy? Does she support what war goddess, racketeer, perjurer Hillary stands for? Does she oppose Trump wanting normalized relations with Russia - crucial to prevent the threat of possible nuclear war with Hillary empowered as US military commander-in-chief. I supported Stein, believed in her, wrote glowing articles about her campaign, her advocacy for world peace, equity and justice. Was I wrong? Did I misjudge her? Is she against what she claims to stand for? Many times in articles I called Hillary the most ruthlessly dangerous presidential aspirant in US history. Does Stein support her? Want the election reversed in her favor? Why else would she want recounts in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin? Outrageous! Interviewed by Sputnik News, she said she raised over $3.7 million dollars so far, aiming for up to $7 million to cover all costs, and complete the task by filing deadlines - Nov. 25 in Wisconsin, Nov. 28 in Pennsylvania, and Nov. 30 in Michigan. A pre-Thanksgiving Day article asked if Hillary intended to challenge the electoral results. In my judgment, Trump won because deep state power brokers jettisoned her as damaged good, too scandal-ridden to serve effectively, choosing Trump instead. Neither snow nor rain nor gloom of night nor Steins misguided effort will change the electoral results - just stir the pot disruptively for some days, accomplishing nothing but shaming herself. Claiming we deserve some confidence in the outcome of this election misses the crucial point. Hillary as president risks possible cataclysmic nuclear war with Russia. Trump want normalized ties, both countries cooperating in combating terrorism. Thats the core issue aside from all others - including the nonexistent integrity of Americas electoral system. Failure to understand it shows poor judgment on Steins part at the least - recklessness at worst. And why did Sputnik News publicize her effort? Surely it knows Putin prefers Trump over Hillary. So do I. Will recounts be held in the three states in question? Doubtful but well see. Either way wont matter. On January 20, Trumps inauguration will proceed as scheduled.
