OK, go ahead a protest if you want, but if you really want to change America, you have to do it city-by-city, county-by-county, school board-by-school board, District Attorney-by-District Attorney, community board-by-community board.
That's the frustrating thing about being frustrated. We have the power to fix this. Don't want Jim "the earth is 6000 years old" Inhoffe in charge of the countries course on science and technology? Don't vote for Republicans for ANYTHING!!!!
Don't want Ted Cruz setting the countries agenda? Don't vote for Republicans for ANYTHING!!!
We can change this country, but if you sit on your hands on election day, you get what you voted for...NOTHING!
If you listen to asshats that say you shouldn't vote because President Obama didn't immediately use his "dictatorial" powers to deliver every liberal wish-list on someone's agenda, then you get what you voted for....NOTHING!
Get out and VOTE! It's the way we change this country.
Right now, we truly have insane folks in charge of the House, and their insane relatives are about to take over the Senate.
Want accountability for the police force...Vote for it.
Want accountability for Climate Change...Vote for it.
Want accountability in your local community...Vote for it.
That's the most powerful tool that we have. Too bad we don't use it.
