At this point, how do you feel about the Dem primaries?

Let's see.

1. the corporations are on a major winning streak!!

Go team!

:thumbsup:

4. Agree . . .!!

6. This is nothing but a $$$ romp --- and major nonsense to lock in votes ---

LONG before the people really understand what is going on and who these people are
--- and perhaps when even before other candidates might jump in if we weren't being pressured
to DECIDE!!!

I think JFK announced his run for the president only a few months before the election --- ???

And the romp is about gathering locked in votes --- not really communicating with the public.

It's garbage --- all presented for our pleasure by corporate-media --

to be followed by a corporate-controlled election.

Anyone want to reminisce about 2000 . . . 2004 . . . and do any wondering about 2006 . . . ?

AND, THE ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINES CAME IN DURING THE MID-1960'S ...

THAT'S WHEN THE STEALS BEGAN---

2. Kick!

3. The only candidate for whom I felt any enthusiasm dropped out a long time ago.

To be honest, I'm more bored than anything at this point. A friend of mine told me tonight that Obama won Virginia. I think I managed to say "oh really?" before going back to my routine.

9. Same here.

It's quite frustrating.

5. Vote. It's what we do in a Democracy.

7. Are we robots? Or, should we have some expectations about voting . .. ????

Like having candidates who aren't taking money from corporations and elites --- ?

Like barring corporations from ANY involvement in our elections --- ?

Like having votes counted ---

a fair method of election --- eliminating electoral college ===

and having third party candidates to choose from --- IRV

and having the popular vote actually elect the president ---

How many steals are we still set up for --- ????

10. I've got electronic machines I vote on here in GA.

I don't trust them, and I remind the poll workers of that every time I go vote on them. I advise throwing them into the Ocmulgee River.

But I still vote. It's what I do.

12. Yes . . . . but would you put your money in a bank with computers that gave you

no receipt --- ???

and no verifiable accounting --- ?

8. Happy.Happy.

Joy.Joy.

11. Disappointed my guy is out but being an unattached observer is interesting.

And sort of fun.
