United States Senator Bernie Sanders and U.S. Senator Peter Welch and Congressperson Becca Balint are showing total disrespect for Rockingham, Vermont people in Windham County including the village of Bellows Falls, most of whom are just regular hard working Vermonters living in a typical small town in southeastern Vermont along the Connecticut River who definitely need a local health care clinic!

“In a recent community forum held at the Rockingham Health Center in late November and attended by Dufresne and the Rockingham Selectboard, the town and community is rallying behind the health center and GRAS, in hopes of changing the minds of North Star Health on the decision to close the health facility.
Rockingham town manager Scott Pickup also reported at the forum that attempts to contact Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Peter Welch, and Rep. Becca Balint with a plea for funding have thus far been unsuccessful.”

Oligarchy is a form of power structure in which power rests with a small number of people. The voices and health care needs of the common people were not heard in political candidate debates for the Nov. 5, 2024 election in Vermont because FOUR of the candidates who were on the official election ballot were EXCLUDED from debates with U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders.
4 candidates for United States Senator who were on the official election ballot for the Nov. 5, 2024 election in Vermont were NOT invited to these debates. Oligarchy happens when the majority of voices are NOT heard, depriving thousands of Vermonters who signed petitions to put the 4 candidates who were excluded from these debates their right to be heard through their choice of candidates.

My name is Cris Ericson and I write about debate exclusion and the horrible effect debate exclusion has on regular Vermont people because they tell their choice of candidate their political issues and political needs, but when their choice of candidate is excluded from debates, their voice and ideas and concerns and needs are not heard.

Candidate debate exclusion is one of the corner stones of Oligarchy.
Bernie Sanders is always calling other people Oligarchs.
It is time for him to look in the mirror.
