In 1999, Walz was a teacher and founded his high school’s first gay-straight alliance. His old GSA students still remember him warmly.
Minnesota Gov. and Vice President hopeful Tim Walz (D) inspired generations of students during his time as a founder of the Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA) at the Mankato West High School in Minnesota. Now, some of his former GSA students are coming back to discuss all the ways in which Walz, as well as his wife Gwen, helped them personally.
Getting Harris and Walz elected will do more for the children of this country than any other single thing. Mostly because it will enable so much more support of all American children than would be possible if Donald & James are elected.
We still need more proportional representation and ranked-choice (or similar) voting to secure this support, but none of that will be possible if Harris and Walz are defeated.
Now if Harris would openly be against the genocide in Palestine there would be no question on her winning. That would never happen though. $$$
I agree she won’t do it. I think it’s about money as well as geopolitical dynamics and more. I think after she’s elected would be a very good time to put on lots of pressure.
I don’t know if her taking a position now would make much difference. Pressure on Donald before of after definitely will have zero impact. Most reasonable people see this. Pressure on Harris before the election might make a difference. After the election it’s even more likely to make a difference. But it’d have to be mass protests / strikes either way.
