Bernie Sanders, in a speech, called the Democratic Party a failed model. He sounds like one of my old professors I had in college. When you look at the Democratic Party and their leadership which includes M. Waters, N. Pelosi, E. Warren, C. Schumer and others, you know why they are such a miserable failure. I h**e to say it, but the Republican Establishment is only a few steps behind them. They are just as incompetent and evil when you examine their record. They sit on their asses and cater to Corprations, Big Business and most of the special interest on K Street. Big money and who can give the most wins the day. If this s**t, I h**e to use that word, is going to stop and this government is to start serving “We The People”, it will have to be the result of the anger, involvement and demands of the Amerivan People resulting in action that brings about change. The people, who know me on this forum, have heard me say this many times. The current power structure will never change until we do it ourselves. This is our nation, country and it belongs to Americans not Mexico, Special Interests, Liberals, Conservatives, etc. It is about damn time they learned that fact. We have sit on our asses for far too long, bought into their BS and worked our butts off while they enjoyed having all the gravy. Example! The exhorbent benefits, health plans, money, perks and a lifetime salary for just serving as a one term Senator and Congressman.They don’t even have to live by or under the same rules like the rest of the people they represent in this nation. If you think this is bull manure, I urge you to do a little research and you will begin to see the light. If I had it this well, it would take an atomic explosion like the Czar Bomba to make me willing to give it up as a life style. As long as we sit on our butts, nothing will change and it will only get worse as a condition.

I completely agree, but taking our country seems like an insurmountable task.
