While I agree with the sentiment, the best and lasting solution to many of our woes requires the impossible. We'd have to start back at the Constitution and Bill of Rights and rebuild the country from there. America 2.0, which you know would bring this country into a state of absolute anarchy, and the world will most certainly feel the aftershocks.

We're beaten into a complacent state of disappointment ridden apathy by being presented the same two bowls of shit for leaders except one is blue and the other is red.

We have other options but we've been fed the rhetoric that "a third party vote is a wasted vote" for so long that we actually believe it.

The people, considering this last elections shit-show; there's no other way to describe it. Can't be relied upon to rally any real change, we had the opportunity to tell both of those candidates to kick rocks but we folded and played their game anyways. Now we're paying for it yet again.

"Only philosophers should be kings." ~ Plato

The people who "make a country great" are the same people are responsible for whom we elect. The vulgar divisiveness of our Rulers filters its way down to control the norms which govern its Subjects.

We need leaders who reflect our values. Right now that would be the Dems-The Pubs are blocking everything in Congress-including bi-lateral legislation.
