Ask Alexandra – October 2015

1) A couple of questions: What do you think of Bernie Sanders? Also, did you go to Burning Man this year?
Rashaad

Hi Rashaad,

I did not go to Burning Man this year, although I must say Ian and I had a wonderful time when we went a couple years ago. Just last week I told him I wanted to go back again sometime! It is an amazing experience and I encourage everyone (who doesn’t mind being dusty and living in a tent or a motor home for up to a week) to go!

I admire Bernie Sanders and I have donated to his campaign. His politics align more closely with mine than do Hillary’s, whom I have not forgiven for voting to start the Iraq War in 2003. Bernie voted against it. I was arrested (with my friend and webmaster Vietly) and spent 5 days in jail protesting the United States’ aggression in Afghanistan and Iraq. I do not agree with his stance on guns but I see him as more progressive than Hillary as a whole.

I will vote for whomever is the Democratic nominee for President over any one of those GOP candidates. The Republican Party platform is a disgrace to freedom, the middle class, the environment, national security and the future. Trump is a bully and a blowhard, for one.

Best wishes,
Alexandra

2) I enjoyed paperboy1994. Came out when i was born lol i watched it since i was 6years old! How come your not doing another paperboy i grew up watching the flim loved it i still watch it. Do you have twitter so i can follow you? x Amanda Webb

Hi Amanda,

The good thing about following me on Twitter is that I will not overwhelm you with tweets! I mostly share information on animal rights, the environment and sometimes what professional things I am doing. You can find me @Alexandra_Paul.

I am glad you liked The Paperboy. The movie has a lot of fans and probably someday they will remake it.

Thank you for writing,
Alexandra
