I worked as an aquatic ecologist for several government agencies and a tribal nation for 30 years before retiring in 2014. At a time when greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel extraction, transport and incineration are generating catastrophic climate change that threatens the survival of humans and literally countless non human species, it is insanity to accept campaign contributions from the fossil fuel industry. They are NOT your constituents. Ordinary citizens are, because unlike the executives and shareholders of these corporations, we actually care about life on earth and the ability of future generations to live on our planet.
Please schedule a climate change debate among the current candidates running for the presidency. The final presidential candidates should be asked multiple questions about their stance on climate change after the party conventions next year. If the DNC downplays this issue, you will do a grave disservice to the Democratic Party.

I am a Democrat but I can see that our party is headed down the toilet with the refusal to understand what happened in the last election. If the DNC does not stand up to corporate corruption. more people will choose to stay home. If you love your money more than you love your children, more than you love your country, more than you love Creation, then just continue on your blind path.

Please, ban fossil fuel PAC money. As it is, we feel we have no voice because of the fossil fuel industry and other industries. Please don't let them influence you, too.

We need to learn to think of "fossil fuels" as "carbon sequestration".

Our sovereignty and solvency depend on a healthy planet. The Earth is a precious gift - it is our responsibility to care for it. We can only do that by ending fossil fuel dependence in favor of clean and sustainable energy. Stop big oil PAC money, stop corporate run government.

No more fossil fuels: no more new drilling, no new pipelines, no more fracking, and NO MORE BRIBES FROM FOSSIL FUEL INTERESTS! We needed to move to a clean, sustainable energy economy *years* ago... and MUST do that now.

Stop accepting money from the oil industry, and stop the wars for corporate profits. We need to end our role as corporate security forces.

I am disgusted that the Democrats are in the pockets of companies that are creating ECO-CIDE and GENOCIDE. Supporting companies that are murdering activists throughout the world. Poisoning the Amazon, Ecuador, Canada, United States, Australia, Arctic, etc. I am disgusted that you support the military complex instead of peaceful resolutions.

Wake up Dems. The country is wising up to corporate power in our politics. Hillary was considered corrupt because of her corporate ties. Now more than ever Dems need to cut their corporate ties, or once again will cede the ‘House’ to Repubs.
