Busy saving the world: Dr. Jill Stein in front of Trump Towers asking for recount (AP)

Our choice for president, Dr. Jill Stein, MD, is keeping the fire under Trump and his billionaire administration, even as corrupt hypocrite Hillary Rodham Clinton -- who did all she could to destroy Bernie Sanders and his movement that could have stopped Trump -- sits this one out.

After raising a great deal of money to demand a recount in key states, the powers that be through the judiciary put a stop to her efforts in one state. But progress continues in others. What to do now? Dr. Stein held a conference in front of Trump Towers in New York City to discuss her plans openly with full transparency. We would not have seen that with Clinton, and we're not likely to see it with Trump...unless perhaps he keeps tweeting like a mad man.

Green Party's Jill Stein demands recount

MADISON, Wisconsin (AP) - Presidential candidate Jill Stein's fight to force ballot recounts in three states focused Monday on Pennsylvania, where her Green Party was seeking an emergency federal court order for a statewide recount, and Michigan, where a hand recount began on the orders of a federal judge. [What's the use -- or, as turncoat Bernie says, "What difference does it make now?" -- is a question best answered by investigator Greg Palast in the movie The Best Democracy Money Can Buy.] More

Iran = America (Bush's legacy)

A standing president stole votes, and an election resulted in what exit polling and statistics said was an impossibility. Vote rigging was alleged. Un-accidental miscounting was obvious so that votes didn't count, and voters were disenfranchised.

The world was upset. American protesters poured out into the streets and the paramilitary was allowed to violently repress civilians with impunity. And Bush was still treated like a legitimate president.

Now it seems Mr. Ahmadinejad has followed suit. While India is the largest experiment in democracy, the U.S. is the most corrupt and well disguised perfunctory democratic act. We installed computer voting machines that preselect a candidate and passed laws that makes examining these machines a crime (Help America Vote Act).

We have a political lobbying system that pre-picks a winner based on money, the best politician money can buy. Voting is just a formality, one that changes nothing but instead entrenches the system so that whomever is selected is sure to go along to get along. Who could blame Iran or any other nation hiding behind the legitimacy of "government for the people by the people"?

Netanyahu and his right-wing political machine were not going to let Tzipi Livni stand in his way. Should, then, Ahminajad be expected to simply stand aside?
