The most important issue facing the population of the
United States and the entire world is not being discussed in the US elections: War.

The contest between Clinton and Trump has brought the degraded state of US politics to new lows. As the two candidates trade in insults and scandal-mongering, government and military officials are preparing a vast military escalation that threatens the lives of millions, if not billions of people.

Regardless of who is elected in November, the working class and youth in the US and around the world face immense dangers. The greatest danger is the gulf that exists between the
advanced state of war plans by the US military and the general level of popular consciousness.

Everything must be done to alert workers and young people to what is being planned and to build a political leadership to oppose war and the capitalist system that produces it.

SEP Presidential candidate Jerry White will speak at this meeting, hosted by the IYSSE at UM. He will speak about the threat of world war, why it is not seriously discussed in the elections, and about the urgent need to build a mass anti-war movement in the US. His party is holding a major anti-war conference in Detroit on November 5, which will also be addressed at this meeting.
