On January 25th 2017 Greenpeace expressed their sentiment.
PLEASE..... DO YOUR PART.
I would rather not get blatantly political on my site, but this is just too important to remain silent.Vote your conscience.
EPILOGUE
Well....it's been two weeks since the national embarrassment, that is Donald Trump,
got extended to a four year run. In what bizarro world, is someone who behaves as Trump has,able to become President? What happened to class,honor & integrity? Sadly,his is the face we have chosen,as an example of what's right with America.
The bar has been lowered, the coarsening of society has begun. You reap what you sow. Lets hear a few words from our President-elect:

I have written many pages of thoughts since the election,trying to reconcile this madness with logic. As I sort them out,I will add them here...

Trump was a candidate facing the most formidable opponent in history, out raised
financially (at least on the record),he offended nearly every constituency needed for a
winning campaign. Starting with women,the largest segment of the population,then
adding environmental,Labor, LGBT,minority,immigrant & religious groups to the list of
those he bullied & alienated. And still he won. He uttered every conceivable smear against anyone that disagreed with him. And the world lined up against him. All major newspapers denounced him as a demigod as well as the U.N. Vatican & many countries leaders throughout the world. Never has a candidate inspired so many to speak out. And still he won. President Obama had to reassure the world that the United States would not abandon our obligation as a leader. And still he won.Many people were motivated,for many reasons to stop this maniac. And still he won.The Republican establishment disowned him, he threatened to jail his opponent like a dictator, build a wall like Nazi
Germany, create concentration camps for Muslims and deport millions of undocumented
immigrants. He made impossible promises. And still he won. He called into question
the legitimacy of our electoral system, praised a hostile foreign leader as he denigrated
our twice elected President, questioning his right to the presidency through birtherism & religious bigotry. He even encouraged foreign governments to get involved in our election & hack into his opponents data,a treasonous & traitorous act. Still he won. All polls, save for one or two,forecast a huge repudiation for Trump and an overwhelming victory for Clinton. The Senate would flip,good chance the House would too. Still, he won. I know if I was Trump, I wouldn't stand a chance. In what alternate universe could a miracle win like this happen against all odds? Perhaps a "rigged" one?
I will await the findings of the recounts instigated by the Green Party. I take heart in the
fact that 2 million more Americans chose the qualified candidate & know the difference
between right and wrong.
