Unless you're a non-voter, in which case it isn't your fault for anything.

i was agreeing to your post but no i didn't vote for obama cause i knew from the beginning he is an actor. almost everyone that voted for him voted because they liked his speech even though none of his plans have been true yet.

What plans are you going on about anyway?

no, I knew you were agreeing with my post because you thought it to be anti-Obama, when it was in fact, anti-democracy. All people are subject to these problems.

It's your fault for allowing things to get into this state then when you could have intervened.

I do know how to attach a .doc as a .txt.

Also, I don't think a .txt can be attached.

were you not just the one saying that the system doesn't want you to have real choices?

doesn't participation in a corrupt system engender more accountability for that system than active non-participation?

he said last year his 1st plan is to make sure each and one of his citizens has health insurance if he becomes president and that he will fix try and fix the economy in our nation. before elected he didnt mention anything about racism or nothing. now that hes elected president he can spit out what he really wants to change.

The "you" wasn't directed at you in particular but rather a theoretical non-voter.

I never said the system was corrupt. The system is producing bad results because americans are too ignorant to make use of the well-designed republic system they've been given. If everyone who didn't vote banded together to demand the change that was best for america we'd be living in a virtual paradise by now.

I don't think american democracy is a sham and I don't think there's a conspiracy that is putting down america. The whole thing is the product of an american culture that treats ignorance as a virtue. Anything that happens in elections, the american public has no one but themselves to blame.

lol, no, it was good. I'm actually sort of at a loss, do you want it like proof read? or like, a review or critique or something? lol, I had fun reading it, just figured you probably wanted more than that

you probably shouldn't assume that the non-voting public agree on anything. not voting is still a choice.

indeed they don't, but I'd say the problem is they drank the kool-aid in the first place.

That's why I said if they banded together.

The problem is that we have a culture where it's seen as a virtue to be uneducated. We saw this being exploited last campaign with those "Joe Sixpack" speeches, even though they ended up backfiring. This is the source of all the problems in america. It prevents smart people from making smart decisions out of fear of being seen as elitist.
