We should stop asking who is electable and start asking who has any idea about how to just be able to get back in the pack of countries in the world that are moving toward a social existence that supports living a equable and positive quality of life.
On January 3, 2015, I wrote that there is no one in sight that has any chance of escaping the taint of Corporate America because the US, we the people, worships at their alter. Well there is now such a man, Senator Bernie Sanders, and it seems he is waking up people. It seems that people are moving away from the "Alter Of Worship for Corporate America" and following the call that Bernie sends,
This is a democracy and our politicians reflect the people. To change our Government we need to change ourselves. We will never move forward as long as the money changers still are allowed to do their business in Democracy's Temple
The sad reality is that when Jimmy Carter said the US was in a malaise in the late 70's he was right. He nor any of his contemporaries had any idea how to get out of that malaise, still don't, but at least he had the direction we were going exactly right.
You can not get to where you want to go unless you know where you are.
The United States still has the best form of government in the world, we just need to rediscover that form. Bernie speaks as did our founders of Government made up of the people, "We the People". A government that seeks to offer the people, all people, the opportunity to be their best.
It seems that once again we have the opportunity to return to the course that was set for us in 1789. I just hope that we are not beat down by the same forces that turned the Hope of 1968 into the seeds of the Reagan Revolution that derailed the United States and allowed the Corporate American Engine to take over the tracks.
