1. I think both the liberals and conservatives are in the business of baiting each other with the most incendiary inciteful
rhetoric they can spout or tweet in the media, invoke a reaction, and then use that wave of publicity to push their candidates and platform.
It is nothing other than PIMPING those votes, emotions, hot buttons.
None of this is going to fix the problems, it's all media hype for election purposes.
I thought
Impenitent made a good point that regardless what is debated in the media,
the real process of seeking asylum involves sitting in camps for 2 years while applying through the process.
Nobody can speed that up, as much as both sides talk about the threats to do X Y Z.
2. The liberals and greens behind Sanders have ideas for economic and political reform.
but these involve DIY outside of govt.
So we aren't going to hear those talking points because they don't empower any politicians to get into office
if these solutions take place by people building their own business cooperatives and structures.
Same with health care.
The real solutions aren't going to come from federal govt but from the people.
So all the hype we hear is projected talk anyway. The real work is going to come
from organizing the masses by state, local district, party, etc. For the liberal agenda to work
it has to be built from the grassroots level up, not mandated from the top down which "sounds good"
for politicians who want to pimp or pump the vote, but not reality.
