Hi everyone,
My name is Marc, and I'm the Cultivator of the Pod “The Law of Attraction / Change here on the Zaadz site.
I've been on this planet long enough to remember the last “good” president the U.S. had (John F. Kennedy), and watched the NEXT good president be assassinated on TV before he was elected ( Robert F. Kennedy).
Can we as voters effect the outcome of elections enough to get someone in office that REALLY gives a dam about ” WE the People”?? Personally, i don't think it is possible as long as we have an “Electoral College”. The “popular vote” doesn't necessarily mean the winning candidate will be their winner as long as the Electoral College is still here.
Can we tell if the candidate is a good , just, and MORAL man based on his campaign promises ? Hardly. Especially if we depend on personality contests, mud slinging, and well crafted political sound bytes.
