...realize WE have more in common with each other
than we have in common with the 1% Oligarchs and their employees in both Parties in Washington,
THEN, we can have "change".
I find "hope" in Latin America.
In country after country in Central and South America, The People have successfully wrested their governments from the hands of the 1% Oligarchs,
though you won't hear about these near bloodless Revolutions in the US Media,
and both Parties here will continue to demonize them and "assist" the remaining Right Wing Police State countries in South America, like Colombia.
[font size=4]"The worst enemy of humanity is U.S. capitalism. That is what provokes uprisings like our own, a rebellion against a system, against a neoliberal model, which is the representation of a savage capitalism. If the entire world doesn't acknowledge this reality, that nation states are not providing even minimally for health, education and nourishment, then each day the most fundamental human rights are being violated."[/font]
----Bolivian Reform President Evo Morales
FDR said much the same thing in 1944 with his
Economic Bill of Rights,
but of course, both FDR and THAT Democratic party are long dead, so we have work to do.
I will continue to remind those too young to remember what the Democratic party
used to stand for,
and the traditional
Working Class Values it one embraced.
I will continue to tell people about the wonderful
Populist rebellions in Latin America.
They have given us a
Blue Print for
change.
All we lack is the will to use it.
Cinco de Mayo!
VIVA Democracy!
I pray we get some here soon.
Spread the WORD!
