“They have a choice of the big donor or the laborious rubber chicken circuit.”

No, those are not the only choices: election and campaign reform can be done. It would seem “draconian” but if you eliminate the need for money to campaign, you eliminate the campaigning for donations.

Middle America has become the results of what the corrupt career lawyer politicians in D.C. created.

It’s one big con-job.

It amazes me that nobody questions how a middle class guy can get elected to a job that pays $174,000 a year and after about 10 years be worth 10's of millions of dollars.

Lots of people questions it.

Just no one in the DC-MSM gravy train axis questions it because they know that doing so publicly would cause them to be tossed out on their ass quicker than Bill Clinton can unzip it.

THe first order of business in an Article V is to abolish the congressional pension system then remove the 17th amendment, and then the 16th.

Everything in the write-up is a stereotypical cliche. Too convienient to be true.

Corrected. Ayers, not Alinsky. Not that I care much, nor see much practical difference between the two.

Alinsky, Bill Ayers, Buraq O’bama, what’s the difference.

I know it is not BHO simply because he’s too lazy for doing the actual authorship.

Buraq O’bama likes to think of himself as the visionary, the person who has/sees the grand scheme. He leaves it to others to get it done while he golfs. [Or is it the other way around, that others don’t want him to get involved?]

Could be Peterson-he seemed less than enthusiastic during his last campaign. His disappointment showing through?

Your rant would make more sense if you provided a reason why you will not use Amazon.

Personal, I like Amazon and have had few problems with them. When I did, they resolved each to my satisfaction.

< Get the book but NOT from Amazon. ; )

All Amazon really figuratively is, is a digital strip mall with tons of retail shops in it that you can’t buy from directly; you have to order from the main office so they make a cut off each transaction. Well hell from now on I’m going directly to the store and cutting Bezos cut out. Screw that über wealthy Soros wannabe. Hope Amazon goes down in a big way.

I don’t know about a 6 year term for president. Think about all the evil Obama accomplished in just a few years. I think 4 years is fine. It would be two years less misery with the llkes of the current occupant and two years is two years...: )
