It seems like everyone complains there are no honest politicians, but if a politician tells it like it is, then they lose their election.
That's because most voters are idiots and immature children who are too ignorant and stupid to handle the truth and respect someone willing to tell it. Otherwise, we would have already had Nader twice as prez and already had Bernie too....
kind of a Catch 22. IOW, there's no real solution & therefore no chance of honest politicians.
the average citizen is totally Fcked.
It's hard to get money to get elected when you're too honest.
Sanders has proven you can fund a presidential campaign without selling out. The problem is you can't run as a Dem and be allowed by the party to be their nominee without selling your soul...I really wish he had taken the Green Party offer to be their nominee after the Dems screwed him last time. He would have had the money to compete, easily.......
Exactly. Always has been, always will be. Not sure where the solution lies without going into Pollyanna idealism.
Unless they're Trump.. cause that seems to be the only thing I hear from people who still support him. After all the bullshit and lies, it's like their last go-to.
"At least he tells it like it is."
If only the 'is' was reality..
