1st 21st century american presidential election

I guess I thought the last post was my last here, but I only feel in the context of this blog --- that a word about the current presidential election in the u.s. might make some sense.

First --- I call this the first election of the 21st century because --- I consider the Bush years a hang over situation - nobody payed any attention and when we finally recovered the whole system was in total meltdown - so the 2008 election presented no " choice ".

Now, the current election sort of represents a choice --- like choosing between --- the front of a dime and the back.  Obama I guess would be on the FDR side.  Boy, how far we've come in a couple of hundred years.  Unfortunately, for all the money going into it, it's not really that entertaining --- and anyway it's hard to make any judgments period because all the info on this thing is so " filtered ".

Many people think this may be a " pivotal " and significant election in the overall picture of where America is going... Not so sure about that.

Personally, I am not so much for Romney - but that's mostly because I have to give Obama all my style points --- I just think Obama is cooler.  Otherwise we're talking more on the order of ice cream flavor.

--- I'm thinking I will avoid this blog in the future --- guess it's me at my most blow hardiness --- so these might be my last words here.

Basically, the American people have a lot of hard work to get themselves out of the crap hole that they have built for themselves, especially if we want to consider ourselves involved with the progress or process of democracy.   I'd like to blame it on somebody else, Iraq, China, Iran, Russia, Germany, Japan, England or France, etc.   but guys and girls --- it's us.  We the people, and have done this to ourselves and it's not pretty at all.

In order to do that ( get out of this crap hole ) we have to encourage our good qualities.  If anybody wants to know about what " good qualities " you are surely looking on the wrong blog. But in particular, the economic issue is simple.

An economy is based on trust. There is little trust left in our economy, hence
the economic situation we are viewing today.
