this is not my campaign this is a campaign of for and by a few who joined together in this endeavor for the sake of justice social justice we need not somebody governments we need not settle for governance by the republican and democratic parties which strive on the grow up money machine were we have to confine ourselves to voting for the very different way away that will lead to a future of fiscal responsibility and respectful regard for the economic burdens we leave for later generations secure jobs and fair compensation decency and rationality and our cruel self destructive criminal justice system that is largely based on hand your rational rage to punish and investment in our nation's infrastructure education and innovation that is a substantial as our need to retain our global competitive edge compassionate and rational immigration reform respect for fundamental human civil rights victory over the string the whole of the military industrial congressional complex protection of our air and wild lands essential health care for all as if every other nation and he had just realized world protection against in condemnation of illegal wars of aggression pursuant to the united nations charter and  international leadership on the urgent challenge of climate change and restoration of the rule of wa a clue doing full accountability for crimes regardless of the wealth and men women and children across the united states and throughout the world are suffering horrendously because of the corruption of our government so no you have much of the public and criminality th rewarded rather than ratified lights a bit take a life time injuries inflicted life savings decimated essential health care rendered more allusive for millions of people jobs lost and the damage inflicted by our nation's debt increased exponentially all because of crimes committed with a human public policy guided by bribery and ruthless disaster is still me corruption by money from the few who have benefited the public's interest in catching up with the rest of the trust realized for all and providing essential health care every man woman and child has been undermined by the corrupting influence of money flowing from the medical and insurance industries the public's interest in reducing the outrageous cost debt as well as we prioritize in the ways in which our government spends our money has been frustrated by the corrupting components of money born from military contractors the beneficiaries of the military industrial complex about which president eisenhower warned our nation in his last presidential address perhaps most outrageous and tragic over the  for the public's interest in energy independence and your points of the most catastrophic impacts of climate disruption has been frustrated by the correcting influence of money  whether he's calamities continue is our choice bringing integrity and competence to our government is within our power that's why people across the nation are supporting our campaign which limits contributions to one hundred dollars per person engages in grassroots strategies rather than billion dollar television campaigns finance version people can insure the public interest not simply the interest of politicians and campaign contributors is protected we the people are powerful enough to  purse government to the highest bidders system sustaining and sustained by the two dominant political parties with the complicity of republicans and democrats in obama for is political advantage simply shrugged off word crimes committed in conjunction with out war with the excuse that we need to look forward not backward is a trademark reminder in the spirit of president ford's ignominious pardon of richard nixon that in our two shared system of injustice the rich and powerful are above the law which is applied often with  crushing inventions against the rest of us wall street criminals are great and billions of dollars well of course rating the u s economy through their violent schemes gold clients on perverse investments was secretly betting billions of dollars against them several wall street firms bundled toxic mortgages and vitally sold out was operated investments the devastating us economy including the housing market and retirement plans of millions of american men and women throughout the united states this was all aided and abetted by occupants of the white house and by a deregulated congress that acted as if they are on retainer by wall street banks just recently president obama appointed a new chief of staff who is chief operations officer a city group and who are over soc and investments and the edge on the back on the housing market collapse we need a president of the we put up with us for so on offenders are being incarcerated for decades under to be countable to have a mandatory sentence of this not one day has been served in prison by the perpetrators who along with their wall street colleagues gave unprecedented contributions to president obama's last campaign goldman sachs's political campaign committee and individual contributors employed by goldman did normas detriment of the rest of us who was thoroughly consider this fact then be appropriately outraged twenty two percent of the regulation of the financial industry made possible through the collusion of republicans and democrats again that deregulation came about not because of the promotion of the public interest but because of the corrupting influence of multinational corporations that took us to the cleaners and received bailout speak because they were considered by our economic policy makers themselves part of the corrupt financial class as to big to fail the republican party pursues deregulation as a priority in this increasingly bizarre ideology even  most americans at tremendous risk while president obama and most of congress courts themselves at the drop of special interest money down act accordingly we will fight together we must some aside our fear based notion that a candidate or the other the republican or democrat can be a spoiler for the lesser of two evils and instead help make real change happen for our good for the good of our country and for the good of our children and later generations we can be responsible out pickle stewards for the future by drawing a line out and committing to no more of what those who don't own parties have done to our nation will or lose we can through this campaign friends a third party or independent catalyse candidate for our nation here is what they say now the democrats have become the most conservative force in american politics now the republicans are the party of fiscal radicalism and recklessness cutting taxes without reducing spending and thereby pushing the lighted states ever deeper into debt the same parties are however united on two things unfortunately neither has the courage to take the necessary serious steps for procedures lehi a budget deficit and neither has the courage to reduce america's and therefore the world's ruinous ugandan's on a while by raising the price of gasoline business as usual in american politics is a recipe for national decline the american around all these ideological and structural obstacles is a third party or independent candidate who can not only articulate a hyper politics good dresses our nation challenges and restores our formula for success but does this in a way that are not americans find so compelling that they are willing to leave their respective democratic and republican camps only that can change in political system th voters expect them not so well known and thus do not vote for them so as not to waste their votes this calculation even major reason for the weakness of third parties and thus the strength of republicans and democrats  however he seriously mistaken vote for a third party presidential candidate can be in effect people waiting to change the direction of american national policy and that is the strategy we are advocating that's all from krigsman and mandelbaum and they are absolutely right a major third party challengers phrase speaking straight to the american people can make all of the difference regardless of the ultimate result on election day another pew survey finding that seventy two percent of respondents are dissatisfied with the condition of our country a washington post a b c news poll reporting in twenty seven but only thirty four percent of the respondents believe the democratic candidates deserves reelection but only thirty one percent believe the republicans deserve reelection and yourselves public affairs twenty seven poll in which seventy one percent of respondents said they would like to see more than just the republican and democratic parties on the presidential ba are living and are destined to live in this century risk rating the policies that will make it possible for americans to thrive in the now world and for americans had exercised global influence in this century as they do last one and galvanizing the country to adopt these policies could provide this shock therapy we need it is the best shot we have saved friedman unmatchable they are sticking with the candidacy can change america and therefore the world for the better over the ones for whom it would probably have a greater impact on the course of american history than the person who won the election so let us stress out this message from reagan national down that we as the american people can stand up together that if people and the girl world were able to organize at the grassroots utilizing social media coming together and the overthrow at the risk of their lives the dictatorships in their countries so too c you get other in this country mike was going up raising billions of dollars from those who want to sustain the system but by organizing in a classy grassroots effort utilizing social media we can overthrow the dictatorship of corrupting mahdi army our government time and my grandfather when i was a kid the court came in and built a dam at lower granite a part of their their last the last bunch of dams and  i really didn't want him to do that i worked on a lot of different things over the years but the one thing that i worked on continuously was the was the was in a unique position with the project because he was the legal representative for the tribe and the tribe the tribe was just finding it the thing about the l y is that every kind of an adder in this fish that's indigenous to the west coast is in the all water river including the really big should not the hogs like the snake river hogs wall was constructed in the river that the fish couldn't get past so what had been forty nine miles of main stem river and probably forty three miles that were accessible to salmon and all of the tributaries upstream of mile four point nine were suddenly gone it was like you just removed them whose i originally thought the dams were really small i  looked at the dams and i realised that they were really big dams in addition the tribe was located at the mouth of the river and so their livelihood economy culture  other attorneys understood it had understood the power of that case when b charles got up to testify about today she was s so good that everything you could hear a pin drop and she would say i know i saw them i was there she was describing these big fish to all of this rust bush as far as being the reference person as being the institutional knowledge as being the person who carried the thread all the way through continuity the project that without him i don't know what would have happened russ was the one steady element in this the first concept and managed to provide perspective for everybody i think he helped lower al will be the little tribe or in the three major projects indians for a long time had no standing to deal with this in fact when this dam was built the indians weren't even citizens and the idea of them suing anybody had never occurred  and so the river didn't really have a spokes person any more than any other river in the aca monte he in the you know all those drainage is over by goose prairie and elsewhere they don't have a voice of their own they need somebody else to speak up for them and i did that i became the lawn and and she ended up with tracts of land issue but both sides of the river thinking the ranch would be on the other side and home would be on this one yes it was because of grand coulee dam and they were in a hurry to build it it was really fast track first thing they did when they built our school river hatchery is to block this river to all fish passage move the icicle river into this channel to help charge their ground water wells literally moving the river and be watering the historical river channel that will carry it had worked with some of her colleagues and neighbors to think about how to approach the fisheries people so that they might consider removing the dams and the problem was vast because the government really did not want to remove those dams but she was insistent that that that stream  she knew it as a child was pristine and it had beautiful salmon runs and so forth which are now for sure because of these sills more conciliatory we became the more and wildlife service seemed to dig in and not want to move and not even want to provide just minimal fish passage and finally as one last show of our good faith as a partner in this effort harriet volunteered to remove three of the main structures in the historic jam and it was clear at the end of that meeting they're not going to get there then so you just said sorry about that six million dollars is too much which we agreed is ridiculously excessive and then we thought i wonder why they want to spend six million dollars i wonder if there are perhaps private contractors that might do it turn less than what the government likes to spend on things so we thought well nothing wrong with going around getting some vids and we found a contractor he gave us a bid for two hundred twenty eight thousand instead of six million so we thought well i guess with infallible they had all that and so he did it and after that we came to the table to the fish and wildlife and we said see we're good partners  lawsuit and when they heard about that they opened the gate and the river has been cleaning itself out in two years it's amazing when i think of period as an advocate it's for restoring this river it's not something that see that's actually something see  through there and the service fish and wildlife service now refers to it as the miracle if you want to talk about harriet leaving a legacy that she's already leaving a lab it has left a legacy you have had to remove the old structure it people coming and going that's what the companies expect that's what chevron expected that's what that's what northern tear expected that's what they all expect washed out is expected and we just hung in there and there's no  said no i've waited all my wife for this and she actually had anybody who who is made these efforts know that you can't give up ever in something that you think is fifteen twenty it takes all along time and you have to hang in there and never ever give up and you have to stick in there you have to stay next keep at it and the are because somebody did keep that and because we have we have good lawyers yeah never give up what the horse see is it it aptly demonstrates exactly what we're trying to show you my name's everett los from the back country horsemen of washington the trail dusters chapter and certain incidents have led up to the need for a little bit more information about meeting of bicycles and hikers and horses three basic steps when meeting are to hail or say hello how are you and the biker or hiker or horse person will then say hello how are you we're are you coming from today well we're down from dish pan today and we're on our way out we've been up there for a week and a half and then the person on the horse would suggest would you please just move aside a little bit off the trail to the low side of the trail because we know a horse is going to spook away from perceived danger and then they keep talking while they're passing so that the horse stays relaxed recognizing that verbal communication you do the same see you later increased hiker mountain bike or horse activity it is helpful to have a good understanding of what the horse sees this became apparent when my wife and i were returning home after a ride her horse was slowly gliding object off for a life career her horse spun to get a better look my wife landed on the gravel road when knocked out of her not seriously hurt the horse a preamble will startle and perhaps bolt in order to flee from perceived danger thus some etiquette is suggested for say for beating and passing procedures first vocalize say hello importantly either party speak up a horse recognizes verbal exchange cyclists and then hikers should then move to the lower side of the trail as a horse when spoked will move away from perceived danger in other words we don't want the horse and rider going over the cliff we would rather have the hiker or biker standing there and the horse if anything spooks up it is our hope that this short video will illustrate these practices and raise awareness between users to prevent accidents and injury i am linda i'm running a trail runner and mountain biker and i've been on a lot of trails where i've come across a horse person or horses and i know that you know if want to make the horse aware that you are there and you know you stop face something to the horse and or the writer and let them go buy out stop and get off the trail the easier for me to stop and you know i'm not going to get scared so just let the horse know you're there and let him go by my name's bobby  member of trail dusters chapter back country horsemen and i have horses and i also hike and even when you're in the back country in a way for most people you meet somebody coming down the trail hikers me bikers hikers meet horse people and vice versa when you meet somebody on a horse you want to make some sort of noise you want to say hello i'm here i don't know where you are you may want to get off of the trail and if you do get of the trail make sure that you're on the downhill side if the horse spooks it'll spook uphill and not down years and years in the woods both on horseback and afoot  in some pretty rugged places steep slopes rocky for other hikers and several you know what a scramble is you'll hit you'll find horses up there too so aware you come across somebody on a horse make sure you know once again make sure that you know that they know that you're there and will go from there my name is jennifer and this is jack i've been riding horses since i was a little girl i've had many different experiences with hikers and bikers that's the key thing to remember is that the horse will see the hiker and the biker before the biker will see the horse and rider they can sense things far off and they have extremely very good vision and hearing so the key is to make sure that you make yourself aware that you are there in plenty of time and the writer may as well the writer may say work down here person right or this way so that is the biggest key fact right there is that you really need to be sure that th back country horsemen and he's going to give us a bit of background on why the horse does what it does so here's ridge hill i'm rich guthrie i'm a or chapter about country horsemen to washington let me introduce you to some information about horses that all be helpful in developing your understanding of how to interact with them on the trail you will interact on the trail with horses if you use horses trails horses are prey animals a pretty animal is an animal who is in its natural environment used as food by predator animals horses are prey animals they have for thousands of years been running away from predators especially the large cats the horse sight of the animal the first way of being able to evaluate or determine the threat of a predator in their environment so horses can see very well horses have the largest eyes of any land mammal these eyes are set on each side of the head and the eye each eye can see independent delete of the other a different image if the horse sees something threatening with one eye it will immediately turn its head and focus both eyes on that object giving it by not killer in depth sight of the perceived threat the horse can see in the a very large area because of this lateral positioning of the eye is the only places they can see is for a small cone about three or four feet and fredericton front of the face and for an area about ten degrees wide behind them that goes off to infinity and of course the horse by turning its head can eliminate that blind spot quite readily to when the horse sees something threatening moving the horse instinctively will run the distance of the lions charge and turn around to see what threaded it horses that stopped to consider whether that really was a lion or not became food and horses that ran further than the lions charge have run into another ally and or become too exhausted to escape another predator so height is very important hearing is important to that is the kind of the second thing that the horses used to evaluate the presence of predators in their environment the horse's ears well the hearing of the horse is they can hear higher sounds than we can they can hear lower pitch sounds than we can they can hear softer sounds and we can each ear can rotate at one hundred eighty degrees and they can rotate independent of each other and you can often tell more about where the horse's attention is by which way that yours pointing then by where their eyes are smell is very good in horses but probably doesn't apply to today's discussion so what frightens a horse and what reassures a horse a predator sized object moving predator speed is the scariest stumps or hikers with backpacks that are relatively low slow moving or stationary can be frightening for horses if they look approximately the size and shape of a predator but usually these objects don't cause as much fright as the things that are moving rapidly the most reassuring thing the horse is human speech are domestic horses are used to hearing people talk horses are very intelligent animals they quickly adapt to everything in their environment that is non threatening and one of the most non threatening things is is human speech and it doesn't matter what the human is saying they can be talking about the way other or the trail conditions or how sore they are it doesn't make any difference to the horse as long as that conversation continues periods of silence can bring the threat of this unfamiliar object back and so i would encourage trail users bikers and hikers to continue the conversation the horse rider usually will continue to this debate even upon their experience will usually try to continue the conversation but do engage with them in conversation until the horse is safely past you or you are safely past the horse now horses  are big strong animals and in this scary situation where they're liable to worland flee that can be very dangerous for the writer and very dangerous for anything else in the vicinity pony down the street one day and some motorbike writers thought it would be fun to buzz the pony and skerrick well this pony had a good experience with bites and didn't wasn't afraid of them at all but the pony had a temper and when the second bike rider went by buzzing the pony it world and kicked out him and threw him and the bike into the ditch so be aware that you may have some other problems with with horses they they can react in anger as well as in fear the horse is a wonderful large very easily trained animal but i would encourage you to use as much caution as possible in presenting yourself to the horse thank you let me tell you a little more about how horses  scary sounds or sights horses can be accommodated to almost anything if it is repeated enough times especially if it's repeated fairly frequently and in such as the gunshot horses that have become well adapted to fighting in wars and the way that it is done as my repeating the scary stimulus enough time so that it's not scary anymore and this usually involves thirty to one hundred repetitions of whatever it is that you're wanting to desensitize the horse to however there is another phenomenon and that's the horse can become sensitized to something scary if it happens less than thirty times difficultly a one to ten times of being run into by a bicycle francis could make the horse so paranoid of bicycles that it will never allow one with it sight unless the horse then is conditioned by having a bike rider for instance appear in the horses situation where it cannot escape and doing that repeatedly in a non threatening manner for probably once the horse is sensitize then in the order of one hundred one hundred fifty times it's our hope that today we have given you some basics for safe passing and meeting horses mountain bikes and hikers and i think the most important thing is to vocalize hello how are you how is your day going and keep vocalizing until the passing has completed because the horse can recognize voice between people and it relaxes them a lot and takes the fear of a silent predator away i just really appreciate all the help and hope that this will give all the multiple user groups some good solid basics for safe and join one of the outdoors thanks a lot i guess in closing just remember that this isn't a practice run where you only go around once so have a good time on lots of fun and joy the outdoors thanks a lot
