If One Party Puts Up a Candidate that is not “Bought and Paid For” the Other Party Better Do the Same



American people are at not only angry about the greedy 1%er’s and corporations but of politicians being bought and paid for, and elections being bought by the same. I google searched “American Greed in Politics” and chose this one, by Magnitsky Act | Voices from Russia.  This became my single image. My fear is that the one constant in all of the polls both Republican and Democratic is that they show, I believe, 70%+ of people don’t want an “establishment” candidate nor one who is indebted to the wealthiest 1% of people in the country, or corporations. They like people who can speak their mind or the truth and their own positions. Hence you get a Donald Trump who certainly fits the bill of saying anything he wants speaking his mind because he owes no one as far as he is not accepting donations from the rich or corporations. What astounds me is that people buy into things like “banning all Muslims” or any of the other racist, narcissistic, hateful, divisive, crap that comes out of his mouth. My real fear is that the DNC is trying to destroy any chance Bernie Sanders has of being the Democratic nominee who is the other candidate drawing large crowds. Hillary, an “establishment” candidate whom has many ties to Wall Street, 1%er’s, corporations, as well as support from Debbie Wassermann-Schultz and the DNC, Super Delegates, and more working to make her the Democratic nominee. Here’s the problem, 70%+ DO NOT WANT someone from the “establishment” or someone who is perceived to be, or actually is, “bought and paid for.” Therefore, if Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination, which it now looks like he has a good chance of doing, and Hillary wins the Democratic nomination, which with “the fix” possibly being in, Trump will get the White House. People are so angry at “establishment” politicians and those who are indebted to the 1%er’s and corporations that they WILL NOT VOTE, or at least will not vote for Hillary Clinton. The Democrats best chance to win the White would be to nominate the person drawing 13,000 people to hear him speak in Arizona. I mention that because John McCain (R-AZ) was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, (I think it was) last night, and said that Bernie had drawn that many to an event in Arizona and that even though he’s been one of their politicians for 25 years HE could not draw 13,000 people to an event. If Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination then the Democrats better not put up a candidate that has been bought and paid for.  They better make the Republicans #FeelTheBern if they don't want to lose The White House.
