mmm..perhaps, but the way i see it is i don't want to waste my time on the avg run of the mill candidate we are used to. maybe when he has actual stands he can clearly define i will rethink my position on him, but as of right now, really...what stand are ppl behind him on? if he doesn't clearly say 'this is how i'm gonna do it' what is there to support? his smile?
ppl aren't 'ready' for a lot of shit that is pushed through our government and paid for by our tax money, that doesn't stop it from happening and ppl going on their merry ways
"Americans are not going to support a wholesale overhaul of the entire system, and if they did begin to show signs of supporting one, the insurers would be running ads around the clock portraying a single-payer system as a disaster of biblical proportions, and a good number of people would be frightened enough by this to back off in their support. "
so...we better not b/c they would push too much propaganda if ppl supported it...? i think if it was done effectively the ppl would overwhelming support it, it could be done, there is plenty of waste that could be trimmed to pay for this. the bottom line is it isn't done because of profit...why should i give in on what i think is a good idea b/c a lot of bs and lies will be spread by those protecting their profits and their bought and paid for reps in our government .... it's exactly this kind of attitude that keeps in this corrupt system of false promises, hell, we even know they are making false promises and yet we keep giving in and ensuring there's mainly R's and D's keeping power, 2 parties, sometimes 1 line overall...i'm going to use my vote for the person who best represents my beliefs, not the most electable, i could care less if i have the bragging right of being on the winning team for 4 or so years, i'm not gonna waste it on the ususal mediocracy
This is a struggle for the soul of the Democratic Party, which in too many cases has become so corporate and identified with corporate interests that you can't tell the difference between Democrats and Republicans. ~Dennis Kucinich
I love this man!
If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
