This is why he didn't call out Hillary rigging the DNC. He wants another bite at the apple. I imagine it'll play out just like last time, same as it did with Ron Paul. Media boxes him out, DNC boxes him out, he loses even though he's the most popular candidate, then Hillary vs Trump then Trump wins again, and this country spends another 4 years stewing in the mess they've created for us to live in.

Or maybe something good will happen. Who knows. Things can't repeat the same patterns forever

I don't see a calm coming with Bernie, the States have serious issues that have always smoothed over by ignoring. By default, I'm a Trump supporter, but in reality, I do think about what I believe Eisenhower said something along the lines of, 'presidents aren't elected, they're selected'. I know that can be taken many different ways, but fast forward to Kennedy, and what he said.

I don't want calm when the agenda, even with Trump, is carrying forward at a fevered pace.

Yes I see what you mean. I also think presidents have basically been figureheads since JFK. The deep state runs the show, and that's basically the military-industrial-banking complex

How do we fix it? I think most people the world over, just want to live their simple lives; enjoy the natural world, enjoy their families, work hard to provide, and just get along.

I do reference the old age saying of: "Sticks, and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me".

That phrase to me, shows our ancestors got the the idea that life isn't fair, which it isn't, but it can be all that I wrote above, and just let the jerks, and zeros bounce off your back like water off a duck's back.

Yet, with a unforeseen puppeteers throwing continual proverbial wrenches into the worx, well here we are. The best I've come up with is to at least, well do what we're doing here, try to communicate, share, learn, teach, and ultimately striving for I'd hope a better world, perhaps self improvement.

We don't need calm. We need economic revolution.

Notice how in the posted "poll" they ghosted Tulsi. She's already getting the shut-out by media left and right.

It could be interesting to see a ticket with Tulsi as Prez and Bernie as Veep.

It's worth the shot Magnora. Even if he turns out to be corrupt, if he wins at least he would put a hold on WWIII.

[–]SundogsPlace 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

How can you be sure he'll put a hold on any war? Wasn't that part of the reason Trump got into office?

I keep noticing how western 'civilized' countries, always have leaders who once elected, don't do as their People ever wanted. So we've got 'voting rights', but leaders that always follow the agenda; regardless; doesn't that by default, make all of us slaves?

You can't say for sure if he is corrupt either.

[–]SundogsPlace 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

ABOLUTELY, that's why I consider them all corrupt until proven otherwise. Remembering back to G.W.B., most wanted Obama to be the harbinger of peaceful change as we thought GWB would potentially end the world. Obama basically did the opposite of his campaign; didn't stop any wars. With Trump, at least we're seeing the deep state strangle hold; yet the wars continue.

Do you really think there's a chance at peaceful reconciliation with how divided the establishment has made us, and continue to do so?

I think no matter who's president, we're going to see the same degradation we're seeing now; empires collapse.

Of course it's worth the shot, I just think that he stands zero chance because it's completely rigged against him, and I think he knows that. And again will just take the fall and not make any noise about the DNC rigging things. He's basically a limited hangout, a way for the system to give people the illusion they have a choice when they really do not. I wish it weren't so, but it increasingly seems that way.

I'll be writing in Debbie Wasserman Schultz so that when the gate to hell opens in Florida I'll be spared! YOLO.

DWS will be the one who opened the door to hell for you.

She's the Gate Keeper from ghost busters.
Unfortunately, it turns out that you're the Keymaster... ;-)

hear, hear, useless-aether. "i am done using kindergarten names for mass murderers and globalist scum" is one of the best sentences ever scribed.

i wish the idiot talking heads would harp on stuff like this rather than the bs they continuously vomit up.
