Election Election 2016

Yeah politics. I do read the times, online. Its a subscription that I find very worthwhile. And addictive in a not so great way.  I remember this, years years ago, when I was unemployed: i would read the printed newspaper cover to cover, and listen to news radio, as if I needed to track the changes in the world. It was kinda demented, to be quite frank. 

Obama, yeah. I have always felt, no matter how effective or ineffective he was… that he has had the interests of The People in mind. 

He was not all pro business, but he supported business. He tried to lambast big money, while also not destroying the markets. Its a tricky balance.

He could never wave a wand to dispel racism, but he did push for some incremental change. Its really how our system works, but we do have some serious race issues… to be continued with the next prez, etc. 
   
Anyways I could go on, and I know its a bore. But whoever ends up prez, I really hope they further progress in a lot of areas. I don’t believe our country is on the down slope, i think so much is possible in the best way! We should always be the leaders and innovators, since we are the smelting pot of the world… and we need to actually BE the better, rather than all the rah rah b.s. of rhetoric.   We are just too high on ourselves as America, and need to show via our actions what we can do. and not just militarily!


yes, i guess it sounds crazy.
