    Such a fascinating piece on @theintercept about what it’s like as a Democrat trying to run for office.http://bit.ly/2BFR6yG

        While there is the viable approach of guerilla warfare, I think in this case it's as he says: If you learn to play by the rules, you lose the ability to change them. The system wants to buy you and shields itself against those who won't sell. We need to support much higher ideals

        It’s actually baffles me that you have to do this to get funding to be elected. I don’t live in the USA and we have strict rules about funding

        Check out Ro Khanna’s public campaign finance proposal. The whole system is broken.

        I interviewed Paul Perry some months ago. I was wondering where he disappeared to.

        The idea that you can't be against a system and still agree to play by it is ridiculous. I'm sure NBA centers would be better off without a 3 point line, but it's there, so they've got to start shooting them.
