I respectfully disagree, Upstream.

We had a candidate running for President who took NO campaign contributions, NO ONE owned him. His platform ran on "change", a platform he's been preaching for years, not for just the last year like Obama. I'm not "dissing" Obama, but the "change" platform is not something he invented.

Unfortunately, the citizens of this great nation must love politicans who are owned by special interests groups because they continue to vote for big money politicians.

Maybe I'm naive, but I do believe that this country needs a revolution, if only enough people believed we could make a change. The power really is in our hands if we really want it to be. Personally, I think too many living in this country are brainwashed.

Just my 2 additional cents.

Best,
Rachel
