My canadate is gonna be the _ _ _ _est president

If McCain can't be elected because he is old , are all the aged to despair of ever seeing a president that is old?


Should this sort of thing be anyones primary consideration?

Everyone can take consolation in the fact that the next president will at some time become either old or deceased, should he not live long enough.

The problem is McCan's IDEAS are old.

He wants to continue with the empire the oligarchy wants to create.

We the people get to pay for it and die for it, they get all the benefits from it.

=====================================

There is an oligarchy that controls the US. About 1% of the population holds 90% of the privately held stock in the companies that produce wealth in the US. If you have stock in a mutual fund, you do no0t vote those shares, the mutual fund votes by proxy to support the recommendations of the trustees. The trustees of the largest US companies, like US Steel, General Electric, General Foods, General Dynamics, ExxonMobil, Pfizer, etc. etc. are an interlocking directorate, where the chairman of this company is on the board of that companies that buys products from this one and retails them through that one. These people are imperialists, and seek to control the entire world economy, or as much of it as is possible, and they want to grow, grow, grow said companies not unlike a cancer until they are into every economic venture they can get into.

These are the clowns who made sure that Juniorbush, an incompetent clown, Cheney, an acquisitive sumbitch military industrial kingpin, and Rumsfeld, an authorittarian smartass infested our government and started a useless and unending war. This is the war that McCain thinks could go on for a century, or at least until every drop of Iraqi oil has been sucked out to the advbantage of ExxonMobil Shell, Chevron and the rest.

Every year there has been a greater disparity between the richest Americans and the poorest. The middle class is being beggared by debt and the mortgage crisis. This is INTENTIONAL. Every year the average guys's productbvity goes up, but his actual wages, or at least the amount of stuff (number of pills, gallons of gas, pounds of cheese) he can buy goes down, and the fatcats get richer and richer.

But by all means to continue to believe that Rush is simply an independent genius telling you the way things really are and not a puppet of this oligarchy. That is what you are supposed to do, in the same way the greyhounds follow the fake rabbit Speedy around the track and the chickens and hogs allow themselves to be suspended by one leg all the way into the slaughterhouse. Perhaps when their throats are slit they think they are going to hog and poultry heaven.

Then why do you think Democrats are uninvolved in this system?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps some Democrats are involved in some ways, but the Repubicans are involved in a far greater way. Big business has always favored the Republicans and they have always reciprocated.

I oppose imperialism and the oligarchy, and see no reason whatever to vote for any party that would impose a bunch of warmongering imperialists like Cheney, Rumsfeld and Juniorbush.

Warren Buffet who is in the top one percent of the top one percent , endorses Democrats . Why should I beleive that Democrats are less Ogliarchic than Republicans? Is it because tjhey say so?

Just believe whatever Rush tells you to believe.

That's your job.

Quote
Campaigning in Pennsylvania in early April, Clinton compared herself to Philadelphia icon Rocky Balboa. "Let me tell you something," she said. "When it comes to finishing the fight, Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit. I never give up."

The comparison was meant to reinforce her image as a tireless warrior -- but it was more accurate and prescient than she intended. Because Rocky actually lost his initial fight with Apollo Creed. After 15 punishing and bloody rounds, he was satisfied just to have gone the distance.

"Ain't gonna be no rematch," says Creed amidst the post-fight pandemonium. To which Rocky replies: "Don't want one."

Even though Rocky didn't win, he was ultimately seen as a triumphant figure. And that's how Hillary will be seen too. Once the disappointment fades and the cuts and bruises heal, the lasting impression will be one of glory, accomplishment, and profound impact.

Hers will have been a game-changing defeat.



Rocky had sequels in which he won , is Hillary thinking long term?
