Look Trump is our Bernie. He is a guy that we did not vet. We did not care. We just know that he is not with them. And them is the lobbyist, the media, and the party. Trump is the other guy. And it sounds funny but, that is good enough. The other guy is really, really important right now. Because the other guy, is the pro democracy guy, whether he knows it or not. Its really not about him. Its about us and democracy.
The democrats are just figuring that out. The Russians know it. The British know it. The Trump fans know it. But the Sanders fans are just now working it out. Sanders is not the end-all-be-all. Sanders is the movement that says Hillary is corrupt and we will use the system we learned about in High School to change the corruption.
Its not about Sanders. Its not about Trump. Its about Democracy here in America. If we want it we need Trump or Bernie. I prefer Trump. But we need anybody but Hillary. We need anybody but Bush. We need to be able to vote in a president ourselves.
I have noticed that the media and parties don’t understand simple civics. Or maybe they understand too well. Maybe there was a revolution here in the US and we did not know about it. And worse yet. We lost. Its like Turkey. We just figured out the coup. Now we are rounding up those who took over.
We are slow. The democrats are slower. But we have figured it out. And we are pissed. And after having a baseball owner and a guy who never had a real full time job as the last two presidents. I think we will get by with Trump or Bernie. At least we elected one of them.
Think about Solidarity in Poland, it was a movement that encompassed the entire range of the political spectrum, but they were all united with one goal in mind....To overthrow the current order. Once that’s done, we can go back into our corners and deal with each other as before, but right now, we need a Solidarity-like movement in this country.

YES!
That word needs to be stricken from our vocabulary. We are not now, nor will we ever be a democracy. We are a REPUBLIC, and if we ever cease to be a REPUBLIC we will cease to be.
