40. I'd like to see Bernie Sanders in the WH too. Someone has to stand up and
call an end to the raping of this country.

I had thought 2008 was the turning point, but it's soooo clear the gov. is fully owned by corp. interests and the cornered wealth of this country. I'm really feeling we've gone over the tipping point. And with the inane Citizens United SCOTUS decision, it's a very very long uphill battle to ever get the money and bribery out of gov.

Frankly, I'm beginning to wonder if anyone can turn it around. I've never seen/felt such hatred and polarization in this country. And the corruption/money runs very very deep.

I think people hope/believe some magical messiah/savior is going to come along and radical change will occur ... I really have my doubts about that anymore.
