[QUOTE="Mr Blonde, post: 1044000, member: 43828"] Your logic is inconsistent, while I agree with your criticism that Obama is also rich and doesn't represent working class people like us. Romney is in the same boat, but he's richer and more representative of the wealthy and their politics. If that's one of your criticisms of Obama, (which I agree with), it begs the question why the hell should we support Romney? In general though, the simple answer is that the unions are focused more on defeating Romney, who would push national right to work laws which would force hard working union members to pay and represent free loaders and thiefs, and also enjoy some favorable NLRB appointments which help workers keep their job and help us build a stronger union that can help all working class people and especially all people in our industries. The choice is between a slow bleed, or a shotgun blast to the leg this year. Neither are good, and IMO the unions are the only group that if they got their [IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG] together could organize a real alternative in this country. It starts by us getting involved in our local unions, make your union strong at work, go organize more people in the community, and push for change in your community. Don't like who the union endorses? Go get involved in your screening process and make your voice heard. [/QUOTE]
