What does it say about a society and it's willingness

To support politicians who are selling their souls out of expediency and desire to obtain money and power from winning a national election. How can people say we are a nation of laws? How can people say we are a "Christian" nation.

Every facet of our lives has been invaded by the corruption of these people and their big money bosses. If we don't take every measure to defeat these morally bankrupt cabal of politicians who can't be bothered to care about the suffering and dying every day because these same people are only invested in the 62 people who own more wealth than 3.4 billion, then we are toast. We Must organize, donate, talk, and most importantly vote. We cannot allow greed to continue to kill us all.

There is only one candidate running for POTUS willing to take on the complete corruption of America. We can't wait any longer, we are the people we've all been waiting for. Let's roll up our sleeves, put on our comfortable shoes and get to work. We can and we must do this!

But it seems like many don't care. If more folks thought this way, then Bernie should be winning in a landslide. He's not. Why?

People think all politicians are corrupt so they vote for other reasons... there's one person on DU that is voting based 100% on the number of AA staffers a candidate has.

You can't fight that kind of stupid.
