28. Frenchie, I believe you are a good person
and want Obama and America to succeed, but tell us when it will be acceptable to vote for the most progressive candidate, and to reject the corporate subsidized "Dems"?

Will it be ok once Obama cannot run again? Or will there be a new imperative, where if we don't vote for candidate "X" we'll get republican bogeyman "Z"?

If we vote only against what we fear, there will ALWAYS be something to fear when we vote. We will ALWAYS retell the excuses of the pragmatist, and we will ALWAYS settle for what we are given, not fight for what we deserve.

I know you are a good person. I know you will understand this eventually - Obama is not giving this country what it needs.
