AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL ASSOCIATION. Call for chairs and commentators: 2021 Central Division meeting.

 

Dear DAVID,   The Central Division program committee is now seeking chairs and commentators for colloquium and submitted symposium papers at the 2021 Central Division virtual meeting, February 22–27. If you’d like to volunteer, please contact Robert Johnson, chair of the Program Committee.   If you submitted a paper for this meeting that was not accepted, the program committee will automatically consider you as a possible commentator or chair, although you’re welcome to volunteer and add more information about yourself. However, please don’t volunteer if you submitted a paper that was accepted, since we limit each program participant to one appearance on our program. Please note that all program participants, including commentators and chairs, must register for the meeting.   Thanks in advance,   Elyse Purcell Secretary-Treasurer, APA Central Division

IN PRAISE OF MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA AND WISCONSIN.

SINCE TRUMP AND HIS REPUBLICAN/FASCIST/RUSSIAN ALLIES CONTINUE TO MAKE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT ELECTION FRAUD WITHOUT A SHRED OF EVIDENCE, AND THE INTELLECTUAL AND MORAL COWARDICE THAT IS EXHIBITED BY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY LEADERSHIP IN CERTAIN PARTS OF THE U.S. CONTINUES TO AID TRUMP BY THEIR INABILITY AND/OR UNWILLINGNESS TO DO, WELL, ANYTHING TO COUNTER HIS IRRATIONAL AND NARCISSISTIC DRIVEL, MEANS IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER 2020 ELECTION RECAP, but first...

Fortunately, for all Americans, Democrats in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, victims of the 2016 Election Debacle that handed an Undeserving Donald Trump the White House, refused to allow a repetition of Bogus Returns to put an Unqualified Demagogue back into office. By instituting safeguards, they prevented the Republicans from again stealing the Electoral Votes that come with victory in each state. Trumpians hate fair and honest elections, EVIDENCED BY HIS TEMPER TANTRUMS WHEN HE REALIZED HIS ALLIES COULDN'T ALTER THE RESULTS IN 2020, THE WAY THEY HAD IN 2016. TRUMP COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT HONORABLE ELECTION OFFICIALS STILL EXIST IN THESE STATES.

It's too bad that other states seem to lack the Capability and/or Honesty to ensure that their elections actually record and publish honest numbers. IS IT CORRUPTION, INCOMPETENCE, LAZINESS etc. THAT PREVENTS "DEMOCRATS" IN SOME STATES FROM FOLLOWING POLICIES THAT WOULD PREVENT ANOTHER "DONALD TRUMP" FROM ILLEGALLY SEIZING THE POWER OF THE PRESIDENCY? ARE THEY DEMOCRATS IN NAME ONLY, WITH THEIR ALLEGIANCE REALLY GOING TO FAR RIGHT FANATICS, RUSSIANS, OR FASCISTS...
