[Peace-discuss] [Peace] Press release on TPP-Fast Track

[ya'aQov]

D. Green,

Your writeup is not only a position statement from, say, AWARE,  You are
also campaigning, asking us to vote for you, given your positions.  It is
our legitimate right then to know what do you propose on doing, if elected.


Beyond opposing and calling on your opponents to advertise their positions
(so you'll, of course,  oppose them) -- what else do you propose to do?
beyond opposing, please point us to what you will construct, and how?

Ya'aqov
