15. No heroes = no disillusionment, no betrayal, no dashed hopes.

Let's get real here. How much can you expect from any major figure in this country? I love John Conyers (for his whole career). He and others will carry out the fight with hour help. The major "leaders," political and media, could care less. They have their careers tied to not rocking the boat. It has ALWAYS been this way.

If you expect a former sports guy working for a network owned by GE (which tried to make Michael Savage a star!) to be our Saviour, save your energy.

NO FUCKING HEROES. Just stay focused on the TRUTH and it will out. Useful, effective leaders in political movements often arise out of the popular movement. Conyers is one candidate, there will be others.

If you want to be reality-based, forget the 'wish upon a star' approach to solving a problem that is in the lap of the citizens of this country, not the media whores.
