But donating a single dollar counts you towards the 65,000. That's why a bunch of Bernie supporters [like me] gave Tulsi $3 donations, even though they're supporting Bernie. They want to see Tulsi on the debate stage, bashing the wars, driving the conversation in that direction, raising the ante for the others, including Bernie. </div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Apr 13, 2019 at 12:26 PM Mildred O'brien via Peace-discuss <<a href="mailto:peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net">peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:black"><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black">Sp that's the way to get in the Democrat "debates"--buy in!</div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black">mo'b<br><br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: Robert Naiman via Peace-discuss <<a href="mailto:peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net" target="_blank">peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net</a>><br>To: Brussel, Morton K <<a href="mailto:brussel@illinois.edu" target="_blank">brussel@illinois.edu</a>><br>Cc: Peace-discuss <<a href="mailto:peace-discuss@anti-war.net" target="_blank">peace-discuss@anti-war.net</a>><br>Sent: Sat, Apr 13, 2019 2:13 am<br>Subject: Re: [Peace-discuss] Assange discussion<br><br></div><div id="gmail-m_2025077006278582731yiv0490421809"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>It's possible that the extradition case to the United States could be stopped, in which case they might have to set him free, presumably to return to his native Australia. </div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Corbyn and the leadership of the Labour Party are against the extradition. </div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Tulsi Gabbard and Ro Khanna have spoken out against the extradition.

It is interesting and informative to listen in to it here and there over its 6 hours. Various aspects of the case are illuminated, relative to the UK, the U.S., France, and Equador. One conclusion from the discussion is that Assange's case in the UK will probably extend for quite some time, during which Assange will be better treated than he was in the Equadorian embassy.<br clear="none">
