I'd suggest that perhaps your focus would better be directed on activism instead of electoral politics. It's true that in the grand scheme of things we have two corporate parties, one is pro life the other is pro choice. My friend who is pretty left wing and has worked for Democrats is pretty much through with it because they are too corporate friendly. He's going to dedicate himself to activism instead and frankly I think that's great. People should put their energy into what they want to do.

Personally I like electoral politics and while I would love to get rid of the military industrial complex I think that my energies are best spent working to make sure we have a competent President who doesn't think that the world is 6000 years old.

Obama ain't Jesus and he can't work miracles and it annoys me that people claim all of his supporters think he can. Despite that, though, I do have hope that if elected he might surprise me just a little bit.
