If the cream fails to rise up out of the GOP corruption of power, I'll be voting for a Libertarian candidate before I would ever vote for a Jeb Bush.
I will vote. I feel it is my patriotic duty. Even if I write-in Mickey Mouse, my voice will be made if not heard.
Lately the GOP "in power" has really been p-g me off.
The country is on the road to hell no matter who gets elected. The difference is the Demos have us on an express train to hell, and the Repubs want to put us on a local, which would make a few stops prior to arriving at the infernal destination.
I've grown completely tired of the Repubs making promises to stop Oblabla before an election, then caving when it comes time to stand up for their values.
They always have an excuse: "We only have the House." So now they won the Senate, and that excuse is gone. Now it's "We don't have a veto-proof majority".
OK, so if a Repub prez gets elected, and they retain control of Congress, what will their new excuse be? I can foresee what will happen when they try to repeal Obamacare: the mainscream media will run story after story about the poor people that "will lose their health care", and the Repubs will cave again. Their excuse will be "We don't want to take away the social safety net." It won't matter that the left will redefine "social safety net" to include Obamacare as being necessary; the Repubs never seem to realize when the left changes the rules to benefit their own agenda.
At that time the European powers had some chance of taking advantage of the two nations that would have resulted: the Union and the Confederacy, although it was a pathetic excuse for the war. (That's why the history was changed to the "free the slaves" lie.)
However, today, if the socialist states of DC, New England, Chicago, WestCoast, and Hawaii were separated from the old South, old West, and Heartland, the result would be 2 of the strongest countries in the world.
There is no reason to maintain the union except tradition and fear of failure by the socialists, corporatists, and banksters in control of the Dark Center.
