Roberts Why do people ignore the fact that there is a perfectly good third candidate to vote for -- Jill Stein? 2016-08-10T12:46:52Z Comment by Jerry Alatalo People worldwide who consider themselves peacemakers must now focus on: 1) identifying the true root causes of disturbing situations described in this interview, 2) identifying the best solution(s) for effective dealing with those root causes, 3) disseminating both root causes and solutions everywhere on Earth, and 4) convincing others to disseminate both root causes and solution(s) around the world.
