Having said that, the electoral process of our democratic west is a charade in any case, designed to lull people into believing a sham dream that they have a say in how politics work and how their money is spent. They do not. Matters of state are far too important to be left to chance and the whim of the citizen casting their votes.
What is so sad, however, is that when the next great hope comes along in a decade or so he/she will receive the same adoration of those same tens of millions -- who held Obama so high in their esteem -- and will also fail miserably to live up to their hopes and expectations.
The democratic process is a fixed roulette wheel and it will remain fixed so long as punters continue to enter the Casino and spin the wheel.
And by God they will...

I totallyy agree with you but what do we do instead? Just give up and let the bastards destroy the planet? They are well into that already. I was listening to Alex Jones on coast to coast the other night and he was talking about how this economic collapse has been planned for sometime now. Alex has been saying it for years. (He's my hometown hellraiser to me, love the guy). So even though we here know it's all controlled, people in the US can still be a sucker for a guy who promises change and peace. Compared to the devestation under the Bush empire Obama has got to be better. But the bar is now so low. I admit that I was EXCITED on election night. I recall many on the EF predicting that there would be no election, Bush would just remain.
And perhaps he "has". I can only expect the worst and hope it does not occur.
