(5,275 posts)I just want democrats to act like democrats and not go all Third Way. I felt betrayed by Obama right off the bat when he hired the Goldman Sachs in and out of government crew, the Rubinites, as his financial team. Then I watched as no Wall Street titans saw the inside of a prison cell for obvious and blatant fraud. And he tried to fast track the odious TPP through, no real liberal would do that.
So it has zero to do do with his heritage. I excitedly worked and voted for him in 2008, I voted for him again in 2012 to keep Mitt out of the White House.
One of these days the people have to rise up and bust up this now corrupt two party system. This year my money and time will go to people who see what I see. We have to break the stranglehold big money/Wall Street has on our politics.
