Thanks for the link. I am sickened by what I learned.
Back in Sept of '14, I watched Scotland vote no for independence. In 12 days, we'll see the Brexit vote. In November, we'll see our own presidential vote and we have seen the primaries to the current result.
Each shows an attempt to elicit change in the current system. All done in a "democratic way" (illusion of democracy,) the people have had/will have the chance to have their say. When all is said and done if the status quo is upheld, the winners will tell (have told) the losers "you had your say now sit down, shut up and accept the results. The people have spoken".
I anticipate status quo. Scotland is not free. Bremain will continue. And now that the full faith and credit of the current Party in power backs their candidate, the press will say "Madam President".
God help us, I hope I am wrong. But I will never sit down, stop having my say or shut up, or stop resisting the status quo. And as far as the people have spoken, they are sheep that will perish and be destroyed from a lack of vision and knowledge.
