Rocky Anderson, candidate for President on V-RADIO!

Throughout election year V-RADIO will be showcasing alternative canddiates for President. You may not agree with everything you hear from these candidates but I feel it is part of my duty as "alternative media" is to expose what the mainstream media is not. And a candidate can bring attention to issues, win or lose.

On this episode I interview Rocky Anderson. One of my listeners brought hm to my attention and I have to say I was impressed with his platform. On his campaign website voterocky.org I found this entitled 10 reasons to vote for Rocky Anderson:
 

1. The promotion of the public interest through the defeat of the systemic corruption that has caused massive failures in public policy.
2. An immediate end to the on-going wars.
3. Essential health care coverage for all citizens.
4. Urgent international leadership by the U.S. to prevent against the most catastrophic consequences of climate disruption.
5. Adequate revenues to balance the budget through fair taxation.
6. Treatment of substance abuse as a public health, rather than criminal justice, issue.
7. Control of the Federal Reserve by the Treasury Department and Congress.
8. A balanced budget (or a surplus) except in times of war or major recession.
9. An end to the legal concept of corporate “personhood;” a constitutional amendment to overrule Citizens United.
10. An end to the stranglehold on our government by the military-industrial complex.
