(11,833 posts)miserable people. There was an article a few weeks ago saying that most presidential elections tend to boil down to some important issue. I hope inequality of wealth and the shrinking middle class becomes that issue in the next one. I hope a lot of people can see and recognize this, even if the corporate media doesn't emphasize it. I think democrats address this much better than republicans. Most of whom tend to focus more on junk like culture wars, moral decay, fear of terrorism and other smokescreen issues. And I agree, there are some on our side that aren't a whole lot better on the important economic issues. I hope people demand that they focus on them. That's why I'm rooting for Bernie and all things considered plan on voting for him in the primary. He doesn't need to swing around to it. He's been sharply focused on these issues his entire adult life.
