2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Gore should have stood up against election fraud in 2000 and not thrown in the towel. [View all]rhett o rick
(55,981 posts)2. The fact that Gore and the Democratic Party Elite didn't care that
the election was stolen shows that they are complicit. It's a game of the Elites and Gore jumped over the net and said "Good job, ole boy." The system is broken badly and yet some so-called Democrats are oblivious. They say they care about those among us that are struggling but can easily rationalize away the reasons we have 50 million Americans living in poverty. They hide behind pragmatism, their excuse to ignore those without health care, or homes, or retirements or jobs. They look the other way as the Ruling Class shots us in the streets and imprisons millions of us.
