44. Excellent assessment!
2009: Creigh Deeds reinacts Little Bighorn in Virgina after saying he’ll “opt-out” of public option and Democrats stay home

I wonder if it matters to them which party is wins? I mean the Corporates who are the real leaders of this country?

Imagine if Bush had tried to push through some of the things Obama has done, like the Wall St. bail-outs. Democrats would be screaming.

I think now, that they just allow a change of 'face' from time to time, to keep the illusion going that really is a choice between two parties.

The presidency eg, is unattainable unless a candidate is supported by Corporate money and is willing to look out for their interests. I'm beginning to see the president (all of them) as just a super salesman for big business.

Our only hope of changing the status quo is not in the WH, but in Congress. It is easier to get a non-corporate tool elected to Congress.
