I kind of wondered when the "Joke of the Day" segment of the RSS would return.
They're all the same. It's kind of comical that people think otherwise.It's all hilarious until the clown takes up residence on Pennsylvania Avenue.
Still havent seen his birth certificate claiming he definitely is NOT the love child of his mom and an orangutan.Trump once sued a guy for libel for saying he's less rich than he claims, and lost bc it's true. Who says you can't sum a guy up in a tweet.

And by "they're", you mean ALL politicians right? Because I agree, it's comical that people think there is a difference between an R and a D once they get elected.
Precisely what I meant.And by "they're", you mean ALL politicians right? Because I agree, it's comical that people think there is a difference between an R and a D once they get elected.

I'll tell you. You vote for a candidate who is above all the BS, who is all for limiting/reducing government. The last viable candidate was Ron Paul. If there isn't one, you absolutely do not vote.The same things get said every election. All candidates suck. Political parties only exist for themselves. Corporate interests etc etc etc.
But what can actually be done to change any of it at this point?

They should just find out who the Koch Brothers' money is behind, and dispense with the rest of the "campaigning."
He's about the only one at this point. Jury's still out for me, but he's the only who would sniff my vote.I'll tell you what to do. Vote for Bernie Sanders.
Feel the "Bern"!I'll tell you what to do. Vote for Bernie Sanders.
She's every bit the screwball that Trump is but yes, most likely.We're Hillary-bound.
Not only a popularity contest, but a popularity contest among the richest people who can essentially buy the nomination.Yes, and the "firsts" don't have a good track record so far...
Sadly, this has become a popularity contest because most voters don't take the time to really understand. "Hey, he seems cool because he played the sax on the Arsenio Hall show...I think I'll vote for him".
I completely agree with all of this except the vote regardless suggestion. The lesser of two evils=still evil.Voting for nobody accomplishes what exactly??
I usually vote 'third party' anyway, but i don't see that mattering much either.
The two party system owns the US and the fringe vote is accounted for in their calculus.
Even if by some freak circumstance, Sanders wins, then what?
What can he accomplish with the two parties controlling House and Senate?
True change needs a complete rejection of the two party system and to fill Washington with non-partisan/America-first thinking people.
I just don't see that happening anytime soon.
I will keep doing my part, but we are swimming backwards at this point until there is some sort of big cultural shift. That requires a spark of some sort.

So true.Good post, and you're right, the actual power the President has, in most cases, is quite limited. Congress is just going to bicker and not pass anything anyways.
In reality, the United States is run by Corporations. It's not really a representative democracy anymore and hasn't been for some time, this voting stuff is just kinda for show.
Corporations give to both parties, as do industry lobbyists, so the only real way to remove corporate influence, is to remove money from the equation, and that's not going to happen.
In fact, Capitalism itself, has kind of turned into this huge entity, so large, that no one can really control it. It's all about money.

Pretty sure Sparty had a wild romp with Don's mom.Still havent seen his birth certificate claiming he definitely is NOT the love child of his mom and an orangutan.
