Steve I thought about your fondness for Abraham Lincoln reading this,
All the more true today. We can reunite our divided country:
"We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature." — Abraham Lincoln

Ronnie Cummins was a pioneer in highlighting the necessity of organic regenerative farming and foods to counter the negative impacts upon human health from shortsighted agricultural practices driven by chemical industry greed. Ronnie and I worked side-by-side as allies for most of the last 40 years. He had a clear vision of the links between environmental degradation, the subversion of democracy, and the dangerous rise of corporate power. His buoyant optimism about human nature and the resilience of our planet always energized me, even in the face of the most disheartening defeats. His indefatigable spirit, humor, and merciless work ethic enabled him to educate multiple generations of environmental warriors to pursue a healthy lifestyle and inspire them with the courage to push back against the industrialization of our landscapes and commoditization of our people by rapacious corporate power.

Instead of championing free speech, the U.S. actively persecutes journalists and whistleblowers. I’ll pardon brave truth-tellers like Julian Assange and investigate the corruption and crimes they exposed. This isn’t the Soviet Union. The America I love doesn’t imprison dissidents. #FreeAssange #Kennedy24
