Ignored
What starts off green, then turns yellow and then eventually gets rotten?
Take your pick, it's either bananas or every politician.
Politicians should wear uniforms like NASCAR race drivers
so that we the people can identify their corporate sponsors.
I don't know "right wing extremists" from "left wing extremists"
or anything in between.
All I know is what I've researched, experienced and seen.
Republican or Democrat or Independent candidates all follow the same exact course.
Nobody attains the seat of the presidency without getting bought.
If anyone got elected President who would truly do the right thing,
I guarantee you that they wouldn't see their term through.
They'd either resign or become the victim of an assassin.
I've never had any interest in anything politically.
That all changed with my support for the grieving 9/11 families.
One question begot another question and soon I had many more
and I've found that the more we press our government for answers,
the more we are lied to and ignored.
