texts to the chair of the democratic party in westchester 241106

 I would like to communicate with the DNC about how I feel this all goes back to the way they silenced and smeared Tulsi Gabbard in the 2020 election. This allowed Biden, a historical hawk, to sneak into office without his hawkish history being revealed. They ignored the fact that the majority of Americans wanted peace.

Trump framed himself as the “peace” candidate.  There were a lot of right thinking people who voted for him for that reason.

This election brings an interesting irony.  Many progressive Friends supported Harris, because of her views on human rights and social justice; however, we dropped the ball on peace.  We ignored the fact that the draft dodger candidate was positioning himself as the "peace" candidate.  We ignored the fact that the popularity of Sanders on the left and Trump on the right indicated strongly that the majority of Americans want to step down from being the world's policeman.  We went for the hawks: Hilary, Biden, and Harris.  We shot ourselves in the foot. Peace has to be a bigger priority.

Woobles Ad

 

Studio VideGro

Cindel Krajewski, CEO

Director: Jenko Kent

Location: Beacon, NY

This was such a fun project.  Before I went into it, I thought that the other characters in the script: Mr Pond and Miss Tibbles would be played by other actors.  It turned out that they were stuffed animals, which made the script super funny.

I was impressed with the efficiency and cleverness of this studio. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is trying to do a video commercial on a budget.
