“Unless an enlightened citizenry on campuses, in town halls, in community centers, in places of work, play and worship, is aroused and demands our government step back from the brink, we may find the life of our nation, our own lives, and the lives of our loved ones, irrevocably changed.” Former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, 2017
Presidential candidate, Army National Guard Major and Congressional Representative from Hawaii Tulsi Gabbard has repeatedly advocated for such enlightenment to expose the true costs of war during her 2020 campaign, but likely or not, you did not hear it. Just as it dismissed the Dennis Kucinich antiwar platform during his 2004 and 2008 presidential campaigns, corporate media has all but erased her anti-interventionist war message since the day she announced her run in February 2019, and barring any debate participation by her since November.
