43. Moostache, I agree with a lot of your OP.
Bernie Sanders is way over 30 (that worries me a little) but he is the most proven, "get it done" Progressive we have in politics.
IF he were elected, he would force many progressive changes. As for Obama's lame duck perception, I agree. He has proposed a decent budget but his proven willingness to go corporate and give away the meaningful parts, is cause (IMO) to worry. I agree that our entire political (and much more) system is chaos and surreal. I have just been trying to see a future where that changes without violence because all enforcement branches seem to be occupied with maintaining the status quo rather than defending the constitution. I also agree with the previous poster (in a way) that we need to elect many (all possible) congress people that are progressive (not necessarily Democrats though, some Green and Independents are more progressive (must be sane though). "It's a mixed up fucked up world." Any politician still harping on the deficit is (IMO) our enemy. I do not want my grandchildren in debt but austerity (like trickle down) does not work, except for the wealthy. |
