Howie Hawkins Brings H20 to HOU

19/8/2019

Presidential candidate Howie Hawkins is making a few campaign stops in Texas. Confirmed so far: Dallas on 7 September, Houston on the 9th. GPTX activists Don and Laura Palmer have graciously offered their home as a venue for the Houston stop.

Here is the Facebook event.

Key Howie facts:

longtime Teamster Union activist in Syracuse NY
three-time Green candidate for governor of New York, including a 4.8% showing in 2014
has also run for US Senate and House seats, as well as positions in Syracuse city government
co-founder of the Green Party of the United States (GPUS)
generally credited with coining and promoting the phrase "Green New Deal"—in a Green Key Values context, not the neoliberal Thomas Friedman version

In the interest of fairness, we should emphasize that Hawkins is one of several announced candidates for the Green Party presidential nomination. That nomination will be decided at the Greens' National Convention in Summer 2020.

I won't be able to attend, David (being deaf now and all) but could you get an answer from Howie about this Russia business for me?

I, too, find Howie's comments on alleged Russian election sabotage troublesome. However, I don't think it's anywhere near the level of what we've witnessed in the Maddowsphere. My intent, if given the chance, is to ask him WTF?? in a non-adversarial way.
