Carl,

I find your arguments for voting for Davis truly bizarre, contorted. On foreign issues Davis will take typical administration positions [e.g., on Cuba, Venezuela, Israel-Palestine, Iran, N. Korea, Ukraine, Honduras, S. America, …empire and militarism,…] , given the evidence available. On domestic social issues Davis is worse than most of the Democrats (but against abortion,  a stance with which you no doubt agree!  Aha!). 

Neither candidate inspires confidence (in me). 

The obvious choice is not to vote for either.

Their panic at the possibility of the world’s great power talking peace – however unlikely – would be the blackest farce were the issues not so dire…”
