 The Presidential Primaries have arrived once again being eagerly greeted by thousands of adoring Americans. The usual clash of the Republicans  & Democrats like a clockwork ensures the distraction,  polarization,  and division  of their adoring audiences.

   It is a show afterall, not for the weak at heart nor the uninformed. State Level voters,  far and few,  know better than to subscribe to any sort of constitutionally hypervillous conjecture. They always fare far better to stick to their constitutional responsibilities and vote at the state level. (see entry:" Can America Take It's Country Back @ the State Level?")

  As for the show itself, it serves it's purpose. The two party culture in America isn't forced upon us, it is taught. Not so much by parents & grandparents of the voting population anymore but  in the press. We see this repeated every voting cycle with little or no mention of any other candidacies. It is that very model that dooms political histories to repeat themselves...

VOTING out one party & replacing them with the other party has not worked in the Congress or the Senate. Democrats promising to clean up pork & earmarks were elected & yet last years (2007), spending bills contained 11,900 pork barrel projects. At a cost to tax-payers of over $20 billion. Now we’re being asked to choose between a Republican/Democrat as our next president.


Candidates are forced to raise large sums of money each election. Sometimes that money comes from international corporations & sometimes from foreign governments like China & Saudi Arabia. Sometimes that money comes from American corporations like Halliburton & Tyson Foods. What do they get for all of that money? The get to set our Energy policy, our Immigration policy, our Trade policies. Do you think it’s strange that after 9/11 there’s been no effort to secure our borders?


Democrats & Republicans from the president down are guilty of putting this nations security at risk. And for what? Cheap foreign labor. Sen. John McCain’s Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill was wrote by corporate lobbyist to subvert the Constitution & make legal what is now illegal. At a cost to this nations security. Crooks like these (Sen.s Barack Obama & Hillary Clinton both signed & still support this bill as well as the Z-Visa) should be ran out of town. Instead their running for president.
Both parties are promising change. We hear it every 4 years. But the truth is they have almost the same financial backers & there’s lobbyist bribing whichever party takes office.


We need REAL CHANGE! The kind of change that can only come from new parties & publicly funded elections. Because as long as Big Oil can write our Energy policy, we’ll always be dependent on foreign oil. As long as China can set our Trade policies we’ll always have record Trade deficits. There is a reason why nothing gets fixed in Washington. REAL CHANGE has to come from the bottom up.
