In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders Annihilates Mitch McConnell and Delivers a Lesson in Compassion [View all]hfojvt
(37,573 posts)52. but what about another alternative
an alternative where we have a President who fights for something good? Who fights on our side? He might fail, but trying to do something good and failing is better than trying to do something bad and succeeding. At least then he would have tried.
And you are probably gonna say it could not be done.
Because it is easy to be cynical and say "it can' be done, because Washington is designed to resist change"
But it would be nice to at least see some people try. Nothing can be done if people do not try, but if they give it a good effort and inspire the people, they might just find out that "yes we can".
