Cynthia McKinney, born in 1955, was in the U.S. House of Representatives, from 1993–2004 and 2005–2006, and from the 4th Congressional District of Georgia. Six non-consecutive terms. Twelve years. She was with the Democratic Party. McKinney left that political party for the Green Party in 2007. She was the Green Party’s 2008 nominee for president of the United States. And McKinney is interviewed by Jamarl Thomas. The running time is one hour. This video was streamed live on Monday [May 14, 2018]. And I think readers will appreciate it.
Quotes
“Every dollar that is printed should not represent a debt to private bankers. It should represent an investment potential in the common good, in the common needs of our country.”
“Americans are gathering the courage to just say no. We are saying no to addictive consumer lifestyles. We are saying no to wars and corporate takeover and the IMF loans that gobble up people and their resources.”
“The situation in the United States is becoming more dire for average ordinary Americans and the last thing we need to do is to spend money on death, destruction and war.”
