Do you see a pattern here? Before you go spouting off about who's going to change what, know who the # they're working for. This isn't paranoia or
hatred speaking, but common sense. How can you create such drastic change as opposed to someone else when you're taking orders from the same people?
The answer is, you can't. You
won't.
As much as I'd like a black president, or even a woman to crush the rest of the existing old fashioned mentality (ies) and remaining quos, I refuse
to support them based specifically on that reason alone. All three of these people are going to # us all over in a very short space of time. And maybe
not maliciously, but they will tend to the needs of their bosses before they give bread crumbs to any of us. They're not going to make our lives
harder on a personal level, but they aren't going to stop the rape over of the American people that has been happening since 1913 (The Federal
Reserve Act), in which some of the top campaign contributors had actually taken part in even back then.
The only people brave enough to openly stand against big business have been pushed aside, like some zany sideshow. My greatest respects go out to
those people. Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, and Ron Paul.
Next time behind you get behind a "cause." Make sure that cause isn't going to potentially tear your country apart, subsequently affecting you and
your family's livelihood.
To me this is serious... If you're not interested, don't let it worry you. Keep recognizing everything for it's face value and rallying in defense
of a person who will make sure our country is auctioned off to the highest bidder.
"We Can!"
Get real.
