American Aristocracy?

(1/5) > >>

The Kryptonian:
The prefice to this is that I am not democrat and not a republican. I am a indie and have been proudly since I voted the first time.
I was talking with a coworker about an interesting editorial I read about the upcoming 2008 Presidential Elections.
The editorial mentioned something that I never really thought about before. Here it is...

If Hillary Clinton gets the nod from her party, runs and wins...then the United States will have been run by a Bush or Clinton for 24 years. Now if she so happened to get reelected then the U.S. will have been run by a Clinton or Bush for 28 years. In light of this it begs the obvious question...

Do we really live in a Aristocracy when it comes to the HIGH level of politics? You could change that with elitist I Suppose but you still get my point.

Well thoughts?

Undoubtedly the political determination of leader has been setup a long time before the person goes into office, look at the skull and bones "fraternity". Also the fact that Geroge Bush senior appointed Clinton the CIA when he was the direcor.  Personally if I was american I would be voting for Ron Paul, I am going to love watching him tear apart these criminals and in turn garner more support.

The Kryptonian:
this 2008 election will be VERY interesting to watch and also extremely disheatning at the same time. No one has really said anything in terms of where and what they really stand for which makes our United States politics look like some Telenovela on Telemundo.

Yes.

Well to summarise what Ron Paul stands for, he is anti war, anti big government, anti patriot act and the ensuing other acts which have led american into the depths of uncertainty. He is against the federal reserve and is basically against anything which violates the american constitution. You might gasp and say but he is a republican, however do not be drawn into the fake paradigm the guys voting record speaks for itself and the establishment republicans hate him. There have been many instances of the republican supporting media going on a witch hunt against him and indeed promoting democratic cadidates in his constituency. He does not belonging to any of these globalist groups, including the trilateral commission, the bildabergs. He basically is the closest thing that america has to a good person in my opinion. As for obama that guy is a joke, he offers no genuine alternative, this was a man that voted for all of these sickening pieces of legislation which now lay simmering under the surface, just awaiting a reason to burst to life.
