On Corporations: The Occupy Movement woke me up and gave me hope

I remember a time when I wanted nothing to do with politics and then the Occupy Movement was born. I can not deny that it woke me up and gave me hope. Here there were so many individuals with shared beliefs trying to make a dent in the system. It was the beginning and now I'm occupying the ballot. Be the change.

Three years ago a rebellion began in NYC--it spread across the country and was in 1400 cities in America. We occupied public parks and places to make a bold political statement-- that the country had been hijacked by special interests, lobbyists, and corporate welfare/windfall profits which fueled dark money and bought off elections. The economy never recovered (meaning average people lost big while big corporations did very well).

A new world is waiting for us but first we need to recognize it and then make it happen! May all the corruption, deaths, foul play, and downright dirty deeds fade away and may all good people unite for a better tomorrow!!

On Energy & Oil: Fracking is running rampant & endangers our air & water

In Texas, "Fracking" appears to be running rampant, polluting the quality of the air we breath, endangering our water supply and destroying the South Texas landscape and its habitat.

No Texas city is safe from being turned into a dust city. I live in Del Rio, Texas and my biggest fear is in wondering how long it will take to reach this quaint city with its bountiful water springs.

We should strive to fight against this toxic enterprise.

On Environment: The Earth sustains all life processes

The Texas Green Party has 10 key values that serve as guiding principles. Some of you may already be familiar with them but I will be sharing them one at a time for all others who are possibly just now being introduced to this political party.

Day 1- Ecological Wisdom: We recognize that the Earth sustains all life processes. Green ecology understands the common roots of the abuse of nature, the abuse of animals, and the abuse of people. Whatever we do to the web of life, we do to ourselves.
