Reply #10: Right, because the other corporatists running in 2008 would have been far better. [View All]

Other than the tax cut cave, I have no buyer's remorse. My vote was cast strictly to keep this nation from becoming The United Church of America. Anyone who still insists Hillary would have been better than Obama on economic policy wasn't and isn't really paying attention.

Our systems, governmental, cultural and economic, are broken from the top down. Our problems are far too complex to blame on one single guy and the remedies for those problems will take years to implement (and will possibly require a die-off of people who think and operate like the Koch brothers).

With a Republican running things, you have absolutely no chance at all of that happening. The best part about the Paul Ryans and Rand Pauls of the world is that they're young and instantly comedic thanks to history. New ideas have to take hold. Reaganomics is a dead issue.

One general area to start is elections. Separate money, and most importantly, media influence from the process and we're better off already.

ETA: AGAIN with the Birkenstocks and skullet!! COME on, cartoonists.
