Prediction by Cry if I Wanna on July 20th, 2015: Jeb Bush will be the Republican party nominee. I make this point not because I support Bush. Rather, I want to show you that no matter what we want, the establishment powers will get their way. The same will apply to the democrats. Their base will scream for anyone but tbe criminal Hillary. But Hillary will be their nominee. The biggest donors will have their money on both Jeb and Hillary. How will we ever stop this madness? I know we have influence as members of this forum. But is there anything else that we can do to make a difference?
Unfortunately and sadly you are probably correct about the establishment powers getting their way. Evil is every where and for a little while is winning. Sorry I could not inspire you but will not lie about such an important subject.
Sure, why give up so early?
Of course the Powers That Be want jebito and piaps. And there is a very good chance they will achieve that, given that they own the media and the uniparty. My suggestion: view it as entertainment. Like watching football except not quite as physical and there are fewer rules.
The things that we do outside of electoral politics are far more important than the things we can do with the rigged political game. Whether you plant zucchini or tomatoes in your garden this year will have far more immediate and positive impact on your world than anything you or I do with politics.
