Barack Obama and the Changing Political Landscape
Saturday, October 9, 2010
The only power that you and I have in this democratic republic is the weeks before every election every 2 years. That's when deals are cut. That's when candidates' pledges, about what they will or won't do if they get into power, go on the record. For their 'report card' (the next election) when we either give them an 'A' (reelection) or an 'F' (toss them out). Pass/Fail.
What possible good are you doing us now?
You'll take anything, as long as it has a 'D' after it's name. You don't even know that that 'D' is no different than an 'R'. In policies, where it counts. All that either of these 2 corporate parties has to do is put up a candidate with a 'look', a shell' that would appeal to you, fill the candidate with focus-group-tested rhetoric (tested to appeal to Democratic voters) and you wouldn't know the difference.
