U.S. Election 2012: Alexander Wants Unemployment Benefits Extended Indefinitely

If elected president in 2012, Alexander says his administration will support the provisions of a livable guaranteed annual income.

U.S. Election 2012- Stewart Alexander: Occupy Wall Street Could Extend Past 2015

The OWS Council would be comprised of thousands of working people from local communities, states and throughout the nation. Alexander emphasized his choice to head this national council would be peace activist Cindy Sheehan. Alexander says, “It is my hope that the Occupy Wall Street movement and the OWS Council will help establish true democracy in America.”

U.S. Election 2012: Socialist Party Taps Stewart Alexander for President

Alexander, who prides himself on his working-class background, maintains that the Socialist Party historically has been “the true representative of the Left,” a point he hopes to drive home not only to disillusioned progressives, but to millions of working-class and poor Americans who have been mercilessly pummeled during the current economic crisis – a near-catastrophic downturn caused almost entirely by the recklessness and avarice of those on Wall Street and their overt enablers in the nation’s capital, Democrats and Republicans alike.

U.S. Election 2012- Stewart Alexander: Media Creating an Obama, Perry Race

With all the media attention, Rick Perry is probably the least qualified of all the Republican presidential candidates to head the Republican Party’s ticket for president. His lack of leadership as a governor is only rivaled by Obama’s lack of leadership as president, according to Stewart Alexander. “To create a presidential race, the U.S. corporate media is creating more focus on style, rather than substance, and Perry has a very poor record as the Governor of Texas.”

Free Troy Davis! There’s No Justice in the Capitalist Courts!

Troy Davis was sentenced to death in 1991 for the killing of an off-duty Savannah policeman. Davis was found “guilty” based on dubious accounts that he confessed to the killing and questionable “eyewitness” identifications that included false eyewitness testimony coerced by the cops. Seven of the prosecution’s nine “eyewitnesses” have since recanted. The only holdouts are one man who may be the actual killer and another who initially denied being able to identify the shooter only to pin it on Davis two years later. Three of the eyewitnesses say their testimony was coerced by the police. New eyewitnesses have come forth identifying another suspect.
