Thinking that who's in office makes that much of a difference is perhaps more dangerous.
The entire system is so wrought with corruption, special interests, lobbyists and everything else thrown in that what should be a simple straightforward and beautiful thing: "Representation for the People Elected by the People", (how much easier could it be?) has become a grotesque travesty of staggering epic proportions.
I mean this in a totally non-threatening and benevolent way: Perhaps the BEST thing that could ever happen to us is if all Washington politicians, bureaucrats together with all their special "friends" were to be in the same building on the same day at the same time, and a big fat kaboom went off wiping all of them away, we'd have to start from scratch.
We might stand a chance. Just maybe.
But to even suggest anything like that.....is the NSA reading this...?
