As you point out, the US does not want peace in any way, shape, form, or location. There's no money or ego-stroking or rush of perceived power in peace.

“The US was a relatively poor nation prior to WW2.” This is untrue, the USA has been wealthy since the 1880’s. It did account for over 50% of global GDP in 1946 but this was due to the huge industrial expansion during the war and also the fact that every industrialized country in Europe including Russia and Japan and China had suffered huge material losses. By the 1980’s USA percentage of world GDP was around 28% and today it is c24% and has been around that for the last 20 years. This is not because the US economy has declined but because Europe etc. has recovered from WW2.

"Vote Green"?

Why? Have you seen what the Green Party did to Germany?

Are you saying this just because it is not Republican or Democrat?

Cornell West abandoned the People's party and as far as I'm concerned setting himself up to be a redux of Bernie.

He ignored jimmy Dore's excellent advice in this video purposely going out of his way to alienate many of the voters he would have needed to win. He continues to fan the flames of TDS as if Biden isn't following the exact same policies that Trump was. Both work for segments of the Oligarchy, which fights amongst itself.

West should have taken a page out of Obama's play book.

Jill Stein is the only solution. She is against everything I am against. Which is war and the Criminal Elite.

It started earlier than 1976, at least during the JFK regime, son of a wall street grifter and fanatic anticommunist, when he started lowering the taxes on the most wealthy. No surprise there.
