Americans at some point must learn that the employees in the White House are just that, and Americans will never be allowed to vote for a real alternative. So forget about elections, at least at the national level. Start by becoming informed, thinking for yourselves, then organize for yourselves as working people.
...we should not let a smooth talking political leader like our current President talk us out of the civil liberties he seemed zealous to protect when the perpetrators of the coming police state were Republicans in the White House and the cabinet. We had a changing of the guard on January 20, 2009, but the goals of our national jailers remain the same. The bars and the barbed wire are still being put in place, but the names and the faces of the wardens have changed. That's the only real "change" we have gotten from the Obama administration. The rest is merely verbal sleight of hand and rhetorical windsong. It is "change" they can deceive with.
