121. She will continue the transformation of the country that Obama imagined and initiated

Aug 2017

I originally posted that DU should support Harris from the start at this link.

Regardless to the "purity" of Harris' individual positions, she stands in favor of the following:

1. Eliminating fossil fuels completely.
2. Reducing military influence and oppression
3. Creating a fairer tax system, preferably back to the 90% range pre-JFK.
4. Eliminating immigration restrictions, including (and especially) voting restrictions.
5. Continue the transference of economic and societal power from near-100% whites-only to full participation
6. Select judges not based upon oppressive originalist interpretation of the Constitution, but one more in line with a progressive interpretation that celebrates diversity over individual selfishness.
7. Finally, to continue the transformation from a nationalist to a globalist governmental agenda, starting with a union with Canada, Mexico, and other progressive governments.

This is how the Harris agenda will metastasize. I guarantee it 100%!

Vote for Kamala Harris, 2020, and ensure that no Republican ever win the presidency again, and no Republican majority will ever occur in either Congressional branch.
