Kentuck Americans are becoming desperate for change.

Americans are becoming desperate for change.


And it is across the board - Democrats and Republicans alike.

That is one reason why Bernie Sanders is so popular.

Many Americans feel that America is on the wrong track and if we don't change our way very soon, there will be no turning back. There is an underlying anxiety across Party lines.

The majority of people, including a great many middle-class folks, see the writing on the wall. They are losing ground every day. The wealthy have declared war on everyone else and now have bought our political system to serve their own best interests. The 1% have persuaded many of their bought politicians that "their" interests are the "peoples" interests. But history shows that to be dangerously wrong.

There seems to be no exit from this cycle of politics. The two Parties play spin the bottle and take turns pretending to be in charge. The interests of the people at large are ignored. Everything is for sale. Power is the only goal of most of our elected officials. They have become very good at lying to their supporters. If it's not the Republicans' fault, then it must be the Democrats' fault - and vice-versa. It's the same old shell game.

But Americans do not see any light at the end of this tunnel. A little voice tells them they need to change course or we may not have the opportunity to do so in the future. This is our last chance to save whatever vision we may have had of what we called "America"...

Wait! I thought we had change coming in 2008? I keep asking this but DUmmies won't answer me on what happened? Buzzy you out there?

Buzzy is waiting for "this Muslim thing" to blow over so he can come back and shake his finger at us.

It's all he's good for, really.

Yeah, I'm desperate for change.

I'd like for us to get out of this welfare-state mode and once again be the land of opportunity.

I don't think that's the sort of change kentuck's thinking of, though.

Sanders is an old white Socialist.  Kentuck actually believes that Americans want what he (Sanders) has to sell.

We got all the change we could stand and even more we couldn't afford from owebuma.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
