I'm posting from the UK just to express my sympathies following the Presidential election result. I have some sense from our own dark years of the Thatcher government of how some of you are feeling at the moment.
Although it's hard, I'd encourage you to stay in America and do what you can to organise and resist the neo-conservative forces you're facing. In reality there is nowhere in the world you can go to avoid the influence of US policies. The harsh truth is that a more liberal and open society, and constructive international relations are things we are going to have to struggle for in the face of on-going resistance from the political right - a political force that has done more to deceive your population than I suspect your media has told you.
I'm sorry for those of you who are suffering in the US over this at the moment. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Best
Gordon
