@wrabbit2000, well this has now become a game of wait and see I actually want to take your side and have faith that everything will work it self out but see I'm a realist and if you look at the writing on the wall it all points in the same direction look at how this so called president gets away with damn near murder yet he haven't been impeached I'm mean realistically speaking there have been presidents that have been impeached for far less than what this clown in office has done.
I feel that a lot of people want to believe that votes still count and that we have freedoms but the reality my furry big eared friend is that that's all a thing of the past I love my country and if I could die for it I would but the reality is that the writing on the wall tells me other wise now if you want to keep faith in a lucid dream and hope that career liars are all of a sudden one day just decide to change and tell the truth and fix this country well then that's a chance your taking I'd rather be on the opposite side and a year from now pull those floppy ears and say I told you so!!!
I see your point. There are other points to consider on some of this though.. Like impeachment.
As much as I may daydream about impeachment for this President...I don't TRULY want to see that, and I never really have. Oh...my emotions and passions get the better of me at times and this President is a real piece of work. Still...... Impeachment would turn a fool into a martyr, and his incompetence would then be seen as frustrated genius never allowed to work like it was meant to....by a large enough % of people to make that a horrible idea. Especially now at the end.
The successful removal of Obama would also see open rioting and perhaps unrest with the intent of staying that way for the long term. It doesn't matter that millions would know he deserved it. 10's of millions believe in him enough to not believe anything of the sort....or assume it is corrupt frame job work to take him down on a bad accusation. Another year...and he's a memory no matter what, anyway.

This nation hasn't ATTEMPTED to vote in numbers to show anyone really cared..to be able to say it didn't or doesn't work. We have a core of Dems and Repubs that form a consistent voter count every election..and that is probably better than 50% of the total voters. Those vote 100% down ticket to the party, no matter who runs it. Then another good % are swayed as swing votes by whatever B.S. is slung in the final months ...and they could best be described as falling for anything, by standing for nothing in their own values.......and then, the remainder..are millions like you and me. Already so badly outnumbered by the hacks and fools....we don't have much chance to bring change by that time.
All that ^^^ All those millions of voters ..are still UNDER 1/3rd of the American population. Despite all that... 2/3rds STILL DON'T GET OFF THE COUCH TO EVEN TRY.
You're right about voting not being effective..but you'd assume the system is rigged from top to bottom. It doesn't have to be when 2 out of 3 people gave up long ago, and don't even show up to have a say either way.
I'd agree the system doesn't work...IF we'd ever seen it with a fair chance to work at all. Apathy has insured...we've never even seen that, in living memory.
