Inspiring Christians for Sanders

 Bernie Sanders for President 2016 - Believe it!
Millionaires are spending a fortune to convince Americans that popular candidates cannot win the election. Contrarily, ‪‎God‬ says a united people can have whatever we want (Gen. 11:6). Who's report will YOU believe? ‪#‎feelthebern‬ Answer during the Democratic primaries.

When our Lord came upon a crippled man who explained that he was hoping for healing, Jesus asked the crippled man,"WILL YOU BE MADE WHOLE?" (John 5:6). It is for us to decide whether we will embrace and receive our healing. We have before us a presidential candidate in Bernie Sanders who has a lifelong history of taking a courageous stance against oligarchy, which is government of, by, and for the rich. For example:

(1) Sanders joined other elected officials who entered a bill into Congress to end government contracts with private prison companies within three years: H.R.3543 - Justice Is Not for Sale Act. This bill can eliminate mass incarceration, because 2.3 million Americans are behind bars primarily for one reason - to enrich the wealthy. That is one reason why Michelle Alexander, author of "The New Jim Crow," supports Bernie Sanders for president.
(2) Sanders voted against NAFTA, which is responsible for removing over 850,000 jobs from America.
(3) Sanders would raise the minimum wage.
(4) Sanders would give free college tuition for qualified students.
(5) Sanders is for universal healthcare.
(6) Sanders voted AGAINST the Iraqi War.
(7) Sanders is against racism and always has been. He was arrested as a 21-year-old college student at Chicago Univ. for demonstrating with Blacks for better educational opportunities.
(8) Sanders is against the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP). TPP is expected to negatively impact U.S. workers and limit our use of Internet services. The Internet gives average Americans a voice, particularly people who mainstream media ignores.
(9) Sanders would invest sufficiently in mental health care so that treatment would replace homelessness, prison and death for our most vulnerable citizens.
(10) Sanders voted against the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) in October 2015. NDAA gives the White House the power to point to any person or group of persons in America, including citizens, and order their internment in concentration camps without levying any criminal charges or giving opportunity for defense - no trial. That violates the Sixth Amendment, but violations against the U.S. Constitution have become increasingly common in this New America.

Millionaires tell us that implementing Sanders' ideas would be impractical because America cannot afford for all citizens to have their basic needs met. That is a lie. Whereas We the People pay roughly 7 percent sales tax on our purchases, Wall Street exchanges trillions of dollars worth of stocks every year, including prison stocks, and pays zero sales tax. A 1 percent sales tax on Wall Street exchanges would be sufficient to pay off the national debt, and 2 percent would accomplish everything on Sanders' agenda. Keeping Americans impoverished is a decision, and reversing that is also a decision.

WE CAN HAVE A RIGHTEOUS MAN AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. How do I know Sanders is righteous? God said, "The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern" (Proverbs 29:7). Sanders has demonstrated his concern for the downtrodden throughout his entire public life and even before that as a college student. The choice is yours. "Will you be made whole?"

News reports say that 90 percent of America's millionaires want Hillary Clinton for president, but there are only two ways for them to succeed. Elitists must either do election fraud or convince tens of millions of Americans that "business as usual" is all we can ever hope for and all that we and our children deserve.

Elitists say we must continue to accept our dreams being deferred indefinitely while bankers and other elitists prosper, while the government continues its invasive spying, while police attack citizens with military weaponry, while our jobs continue going overseas and behind bars so that elitists can capitalize on cheap labor. They say continue the "Obama legacy" while our dreams to earn living wages, buy and actually keep a home, have health care insurance, and send our children to college are dashed. The rich get richer as our resources and manpower are used to fight avoidable wars. On the other hand, it is God's will that things be well with you and that you prosper even as your soul prospers. God gave us free will. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4BcJQa71rYs/ "Who's report will you believe?" Embedded below is a choir singing this song:



Michelle Alexander​ is featured in a report: "Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote. From the crime bill to welfare reform, policies Bill Clinton enacted — and Hillary Clinton supported — decimated black America." I recommend that you read it at http://www.thenation.com/article/hillary-clinton-does-not-deserve-black-peoples-votes/

Christians must never choose "the lesser of two evils." We must not participate in placing evil in power. I come to you today with a report from the Lord:

"His report says I Am healed, His report says I Am filled, His report says I Am free, His report says VICTORY!"

It behooves Christians to learn reasons "Why Human Rights Defenders Support Bernie Sanders for President." Please hear and share this radio broadcast http://www.blogtalkradio.com/humanrightsdemand/2016/03/14/why-human-rights-defenders-support-bernie-sanders-for-president/ 

The choice is ours.

Justice Project: Fight the New Jim Crow



119 U.S. Cities Are Being Asked to Help Eliminate The New Jim Crow with Thought and Actions During March and April 2012!
 
With more Black men in jails and prisons than colleges and universities, it is time for the Black Male Achievement Movement to get to work! The efforts of Michelle Alexander and her book, "The New Jim Crow," are stimulating a social justice movement in 119 cities with reading groups, praying warriors and action teams. It is time for good men and women to get to work!

During March and April 2012, people in your city can:
Host a reading circle for "The New Jim Crow" book at your church, high school or college
Communicate with your elected officials about ways to change laws that sweep Black men and boys into the criminal justice system
  1. Mentor youth in juvenile detention facilities
  2. Visit incarcerants in prisons and jails (men and women) 
  3. Work to get records expunged for the formerly incarcerated
  4. Welcome returning citizens (from prison) back to your community
  5. Help returning citizens get jobs
  6. Council first-time offenders so that they remain crime free
  7. Speak to youth in schools about not becoming part of the criminal justice system
  8. Become a court watcher to ensure that Black men and boys are treated fairly by the criminal justice process
  9. Write a letter to a jail or prison encouraging men and women who are incarcerated to keep their spirits high

To become one of the the Servant Leaders in your city planning and directing this effort, please call 773.285.9600.
We will provide you with an organizing kit that will help you step-by-step to create, manage or support an outstanding New Jim Crow Social Justice Movement program in your city. We will also provide technical assistance and ongoing support. Churches, schools, faith-based organizations, fraternities, Masonic organizations, veterans associations, community-based organizations, affinity organizations, military service personnel, social service agencies, companies and corporations will participate in this effort. Most events will occur between March 1, 2012 and April 30, 2012.

"Much like a great explorer, Michelle Alexander has discovered another America - a bizarro world where prejudice and discrimination have replaced truth and justice. An America that is as intent on destroying young Black men as it is at proclaiming its passion for freedom and fairness. Even some of the most conscious and best-intentioned Americans can't see The New Jim Crow and their roles in supporting it. Michelle Alexander holds a mirror up to America and reveals a monster!" ~Phillip Jackson, The Black Star Project

Click NJCevents@gmail.com to discuss bringing Michelle Alexander to your city.  
Many of the cities below that participated in our national mentoring initiative are being asked to participate in this direct action, social justice campaign designed to reduce the number of Black men, women and children locked up in detention centers, youth facilities, jails and prisons in the United States.

I CONGRATULATE THE ORGANIZERS OF THIS PROGRAM TO FIGHT "THE NEW JIM CROW." LET'S GET AMERICA OUT OF JAIL AND ELIMINATE HIGH RECIDIVISM NUMBERS. IF WE WORK TOGETHER, WE CAN RESIST OPPRESSION AND MAKE THIS A LAND OF LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! PROOF IS IN THE HOLY BIBLE AT GENESIS 6:11, WHICH STATES:

BEHOLD, THE PEOPLES IS ONE AND THEY SPEAK ONE LANGUAGE, AND THIS THEY DETERMINED TO DO. NOW NOTHING CAN BE WITHHELD FROM THEM WHICH THEY DECIDE TO DO.

UNITED IN PURPOSE, WE CAN HAVE WHATEVER WE WANT, EVEN REAL DEMOCRACY!
