Change, change, change, change, change.
So all the candidates (Dem and Rep) are now insisting they are the candidates for change. “Change”: an amazing little word that is sweeping this country. They all use it as much as Alberto used “I don’t recall”.
From what I see, America doesn’t really want change. They want some nebulous promise given to them by the media endowed “front-runners”; they want to see things done in a different way while not having a clue what is causing the problem to begin with. They don’t realize that there are very few REAL candidates for change running… no matter WHAT they say about themselves.
Hillary says she has worked for change her whole life, but things work precisely the same for her as it always did for the Clinton Machine. Big Money feeds her, just as it fed the ReTHUGlicans for so many years. Hillary is Bush Lite, with hardly any change (except she is slitted and he is a dick).
Obama is little different. He gets his money from PACs. Edwards is a bit better, but still raises most contributions through lawyers and groups such as that.
There is but one Democratic candidate that does not accept these funds from ANY special interest… Dennis Kucinich.
Is it interesting to you to know that he represents the most change, as well? Have you even heard of him?
Probably not, because of that very fact. He does not take money from Big Business, so Big Business’s pitbull (the MSM) will not allow his message to be heard. The pundits are clueless because he doesn’t garner the draw and dollars, so their string-pullers tell them how “unelectable” Dennis is and they (like excellent lapdogs) do what they are told.
But it isn’t just the MSM, the Democratic Party is also complicit. In the Iowa and New Hampshire polls, the party never said a thing about their excluding Dennis from the debates. SILENCE. But that silence was all so very loud to my ears (and mind).
The fact is that even the Democrats are squashing that message. I can tell you why by simply explaining where my representatives get the vast majority of contributions… Lamar Alexander gets his lion’s share from Health Insurance Companies; Marsha Blackburn gets hers from the AT&T, Verizon, etc (The Big Communications companies).
Alas, I can tell you right farking now that Lamar will NEVER vote for a Universal not-for-profit health care program. I can tell you right farking now that Marsha will never hold these phone companies responsible for their law breaking and will give them immunity as quickly as humanly possible.
When their coffers are at risk, they are indebted. Period.
And it is and will be exactly the SAME way when Hillary or Obama get the nod.
You want “Change” America? You ain’t gonna get it by voting for those that the Big Money want you to vote for.
What a sad, pitiful state we are in.
