Hillary Clinton has no more intention of delivering on gun control than Barack Obama did. 1)It would require a Democratic Congress. The last thing in the world a 3rd way democrat wants is a Democratic Congress, because then they are expected to govern like Democrats. "Real Democrats" do stuff like defend the 99%, with high wages, a real public option, not to mention protecting social security. I mean "Bleck!" 3rd way dems don't do Dem stuff well, and don't want to.

Keith Ellison is a member of the DNC Platform Drafting Committee. He is one of Bernie's picks. So it may not be a surprise that he is showing interest in what real people have to say.

I posted information on his request on another blog for which I am a guest author (OK, a regular guest author). Here is the link:

Except for the lobbyists, the Platform Committee is looking very good (unlike the presumptive nominee). I found at least three of the DNC appointed committee to be excellent choices. Surprised to say so actually since I think it was 1972 the last time I had anything positive to say about them.

DATELINE - Philadelphia, July 7, 2016.

In what has already been the strangest, unpredictable political season, things just got weirder. Much weirder.

How we got to this time and place will be written about for generations to come. One thing is for certain - nothing, absolutely nothing is certain anymore.

No matter how the election turns out this November as to who is Prez, and whether or not Bernie ran as 3rd party, Hillary will not be denied the presidency this time around, IMNSHO.

Email to DNC:

I have been voting mostly as a Democrat for more than 40 years and donated over $700 to Obama Campaign.

That all ends today. The NV Convention is the last straw.

The Democrats would rather lose the general with the liar and cheater-in-chief, Hillary Clinton, than win with an honest man-of-the-people, even if they have to steal the votes of a convention to get the Queen of Corruption nominated.

This lying cheating undemocratic political party no longer deserves my support. And neither does any candidate who would run on the ticket of such a corrupt party.

My vote for Bernie in the Texas primary will go down on record as my last EVER vote for anyone running on the ticket of the undemocratic "Democratic" Party.

I am now an Independent Voter and have joined a rapidly growing segment of the voting population in proclaiming myself as such.

Inspired by Bernie today... so I decided that it would be fun to think about the political parties and their various characteristics. I finally realized that they all have effects and general ways they make people react. Yes, they affect some people differently than others, but in the end, they all aim to alter your behavior and outlook.

The Political Parties and Persons are DRUGS. And it's pretty obvious which ones they are when you think about it.
