    because the politics I actually support will have a better chance of doing some good than if I don’t vote for him.

    But we all know the reality of any of that happening is none. The exact same discussions we are having right now in regards to wages and housing and education and healthcare we have been having for decades in this country and on many of these issues for damn near over 100 years. The same issues that we are faced with right now with the state of the economy they were faced with those issues during Martin Luther King Jrs era. They lead the public on with promises that we are almost there, but we’ve been almost there for decades. At this point, hopefully a majority of the general public believe that they are just being led to the polls with a carrot and platitudes of empty promises that will never be fulfilled.
