Sorry to say, but that's how I see it. I don't remember it always being that way.

Politicians by Nature Crooked By Franklin Price 7/24/2016 Politicians by nature crooked Doesn't matter which the side Self minded interests move them Up and down and side to side Nothing changes with the parties Even agendas are the same To get themselves elected Is the reason for the game The rules are not pertaining If they're ahead or far behind The machinations gone through Will boggle any mind Tell lies about opponents Their family and their mates Get the dead to vote for them Reserve those super delegates The higher the position The more the rules are changed When running to be President The resultant rules are so deranged It's not about the people Can't let them have their say Much too ignorant to make a choice God forbid they have their way

Where do we go from here? The people must be involved for change. The established politicians have shown their interest, or lack thereof. Thanks for visiting
