As a candidate or incumbent for 2018 Political Office, I commit to work for:

2. Restraining our governments from intervening, overtly and covertly, in the internal affairs of other nations
3. Ending the arms race plus reducing and eventually eliminating nuclear weapons
4. Seeking justice for veterans and victims of war
5. Abolishing war as an instrument of national policy
6. Ending systemic racism, poverty, militarism, and ecological devastation
