16. What Does It Really Matter? While I WILL Fight For Another, I Do
honestly think that NO MATTER what "the base" says or does we essentially will be IGNORED!

The truth and DIRTY DIRTY reality of The Machine OF Hillary is that not only does she have super corporate, lobbyist support, she has managed to reach in and pluck almost every SUPER organization in this country! Not until today has it really hit home how very SCREWED we really are as a once great Democratic Party! Bought AND Paid for, wrapped up in silver and gold bows to present to a public who simply thinks a change of party will make a difference.

But there is actually NO DIFFERENCE! She has dipped into every nook of NYC to get tremendous support from many I could never have imagined would be fooled because they were once Liberals! Somehow she has managed to fool D.C. and is the Darling of the Elites, and in GOLLYWOOD, the likes of Rob Reiner blithely support her!! People who I ALWAYS imagined as true and loyal Democrats, maybe not super Liberals, but Liberals nonetheless, who seem to have sold out too! And what for?? Mo' MONEY to line their pockets hoping for even more favors to make them even richer! More positions to keep them front and center and a way to rule a once great country!

It sickens me to the core! As I said, I will work to help the candidate I support now... but given her anointment already I wonder how the other candidates must feel. Even her support on issues that aren't supported by many are being overlooked because as a song Jackson Browne once wrote said... They sell us our Presidents, like they sell us our clothes and our cars! Those words have never been more true. BTW the name of the song is "Lives In The Balance" from the 80's!

I'm tempted to say "should" she become the nominee, the "should" being the operative word... it almost seems a forgone conclusion despite what so many others really don't want to happen. Pink Floyd... MONEY! It's seared into my mind! I have made up my mind that this will be my last excursion into politics, and that I don't see any difference between her and a Repuke candidate, so the day they say she's the nominee, that's the day I quit!

I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HER! I WILL NOT JOIN ANOTHER PARTY, and what will be will be!

Flame Away!!!!!!
