Nov 05th, 2012 - 05:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The US politics of disappointment have been going on for sometime now,especially since the 1970th years.
Nov 05th, 2012 - 06:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They are driven by automation,trade and immigration policies whose combine effect is to increase the supply and reduce the demand of labour even as they promote the growth of the economy as a whole.In other words they bring about a redistribution of income from labour to capital.
So far neither party has been willing to address this problem honestly and forthrightly.The best explanation is that the “” donor class“” who wealthiest families in US who finance both parties and set the political agenda., do not want to go there.,also they don't want give up their status symbols.
The only difference is those dad gum status symbols which are anti democratic.
i ask my hispanics in north america,why do you vote?vote for the black man that doesnt even love his own people or the racist white man who will see you thrown across the border without hesitacion.in north america we are the new black man,like 2pac said they dont give a f__k about us.they will use your vote to come to power and legalize abortions for their own people AKA BARRY OBAMA.YOU FOOLS... i never voted and i will never vote.you want a better life?,no politician will hand you it...you have to take it...with blood,sweat and tears.in a world run by crooks,thieves,genocidal maniacs and peadophiles what price would you pay for your family to have a better life?il pay that price with my life and every drop of my blood, not with a lottery ticket vote,hoping you hit the jackpot and all you got was a turd sandwich.the stupidity of human lemmings never seases to amaze me and while politicians tighten the noose around the people of a nation.i fear for the future generations because of the cowardice,stupidity,incompassion,selfishness and greed of this one,ready to sell theirs souls and assssesss for ink on paper and not speaking truth even if it means death.i know i will not be alive to see that one day when every man woman and child of every race or belief will be free of the people causing all these ills on mankind but i know there is a fire that burns in all of us that will never allow such criminality go unpunished.does the future hold freedom or slavery for earth.....YOU DECIDE.Peace.

Nov 06th, 2012 - 05:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0African American? WTF is that? Do they exist or are they just a bunch of blacks that are born in the United States and have zero clue what african culture is or whatever. Similar with those morons, aka “italian americans” who know zero about italian history nor can't speak Italian and similar with those “potato heads” aka bogus “irish american” idiots. Hyphenating/labeling is destroying this nation.
in many years “ALL” continent will speak Spanish!!
Not going to happen, though the United States is becoming a spanish speaking nation. Soon or later the only non spanish speaking nations in continent America will be: Brazil, Belize, Canada, islands in the carribean, Suriname, French Guiana and the Falklands/Las Malvinas.
I'm amazed that there are still Hispanics in the United States who believe in this fake left vs right paradigm.
The presidential fake erection.
Divide and Conquer.
The voters ruse.
Left or right.
“I’m better than you.”
Presidents change,
Policies remain.
The two headed beast,
The illusion of the game.
The shadow that puppets the puppets we vote in.
The banks back both sides,
And always win.
The lie of the truth,
The truth of it all.
The rigged politics of stealth,
Just bricks in the wall.
Democrats or republicans,
They just follow their nose.
And the stink that leads them,
Is where the money goes.
Romney, Obama, they are one and the same.
Puppets of the elite playing for fame.
Enjoy your battle,
Divided you stand.
Giving them their check mate,
To their ever wining plan.
The banks, The wars,
The corporate senate whores.
The warning from the forefathers
Knock on our doors.
Has the USA,
Had it’s day?
Will the voters ,
Vote it away?
The illusion of the game.
Who killed JFK?
The puppeteer,
War mongering,
USA shame.
As a resident here I enjoy this “reality show”. It's better than jersey shore.
@8 africans stinks like british farts
