Yes I know what's at stake, and that's why I refuse to validate the corrupt party establishment [View all]

with my expected obedience any longer. I've become aware that continuing to add my microvolt of power to keep the machine alive is not, as the rulers would have you believe, contributing to a better world. Bernie's campaign represents a glimmer of hope for a true departure from the as-usual business of using politics to concentrate wealth and power through war, fraud, and advantage. Hillary's campaign represents the status quo. Save the preaching and shaming for those who can't see the walls of their prison. I'm clear.
