37. One person promised, big deal

Martin can promise anything he likes but in the end it’s not up to him. Like it or not not it’s up to the members of DNC. The average voter doesn’t give a damn about this. They are more the cost of groceries and gas. Promises are broken in politics and government all the time. If not releasing a report that 99% of the public doesn’t care about is worst, they are ahead of the game. A presidential candidate promising to not get the country into an unjustified war and then doing just that is a lot more serious.

And you’ll have to forgive me. I haven’t read the report so I don’t know what it has to say. Any thing else would be pure assumption on my part and I’m not arrogant enough to do that.
