The rampant corruption of the past decade
is a pretty good indication that Wikileaks' intentions are right on the money. The only way that scale of corruption is possible is by way of excessive secrecy and media collusion. Yet for some reason we aren't supposed to talk about the corruption and how that has severely damaged US national security. The patriotism of government officials is always accepted without question. They don't have to answer to anyone regardless of their conduct. The whistleblowers are the people who must explain why they hate America.

9. Rotten to the core.
The one thing that could bring America back together is another Bobby Kennedy, running on an independent reform-based message. Fearless & incorruptible.
