About Jezza

i am hugely discouraged after all debates this year, all the prewritten editorial "reactions" from MSNBC, FOX 'n CNN (clinton news network).... these past weeks. if this were the 1920s Prohibition these people would've fit nicely in the mass corruption. If we were in a spaghetti western, these people would be carpet baggers whose eyes' we'd all want to spit. ---- ...so, i've gone back and started studying 'n reading up on these "wacky" Progressive Liberals... i voted Ralph Nader in 2000, and now that i'm older, still think he'd have been a smart President. trully i think he remains one of our country's most brilliant minds. Now there's this term Democratic Socialist, a platform built with planks of Single-Payer Medicare, Taxing Super-Rich to pay for education, increase minumum wage, and reform-everything-that-the-corporatists have phuct over these past couple decades. ---- ...ok, i wanna learn more... this ain't the Hillary:Kerry:Gore//Bush politics... this is Liberal Revolt! i love it! lemme go dig out the old BlueDog ;) ---- turns out i'm the great-grandson of the Great Depression ... back in 1932, my grandPap lost the Farm to First National Bank at the age of 15 (after our great-granddad George died) is when in 1934 FDR began programs to protect workers and farmers with policy to dismantle centralized banks (corporate control) in US that had triggered that great depression. The very same condition that today's duopoly of Democrapublican-Corporatists have permitted to perpetuate resulting in huge personal-debt in our country ... At that time, FDR was called progessive; as an insult, and like Bernie Sanders who's suggesting a similar (r)evolution now... on Education, Civil-Rights, Citizenship Reform, Farming/Food Reform, Police, Taxes, public works programs (...geez, sounds like FDR's CCCC) et al. ---- "...we're tired of corn!!" The 70s are over, but GMO corps such as Monsanto, had no competition nor restraint... eh, how do ya spell corporate lobbyist?... Some groups continue to attempt to empower farmers thru pushing legislation against the likes of these horriblely subsidized supercorps that effectively destroyed our nations family farms... but they all fail in the end. ---- this Corporatists mission of building up wallstreet monsters has to change ... (some of whom fund Hillary, by-the-way). Does anyone notice that this election is like the Billionaires vs the Country??? Look who's funding the presidential candidates ---- i digress, so, interesting how history parallels from the 1938 fights between FDR and the same dogmas in past weeks' positions by HClinton/TKruz/Rubio... All three candidates push apparent differences to each Democrapublican (Dem/GOP) political party's influence by super PACs and big corporatist base (Monsanto & JPMorgan & DuPont and GoldyLocks...) ** note, i don't mention Trump, as he's just an honest Billionaire not even trying to hide his intent; unlike the politicians of Hillary/Cruz/Rubio who flat lie, and we know it. ---- is time to go another direction. Bernie Sanders seems to be good at the time. ...and i do hope Elizabeth Warren (a great progressive mind) get's into this evolutionary battle too. She'd be a fantastic President/VP...
