I think it is definitely true that America is in bad shape

It has a lot to be concerned about, but not for any reasons Donald Trump has been barking--for reasons that Bernie Sanders described during the campaign.  Hillary has not voiced any concern for this while out campaigning...if she has, she certainly has been quiet about it.

Since 1982 income inequality has been steadily on the rise....at this moment, this country has greater income inequality than any time since 1928.


How is there any issue in this country that should draw more focus???  Yet, I hear NO ONE mentioning this except Bernie.  It's the biggest elephant in the room


It makes no sense...and it makes me feel like neither candidate is qualified to be POTUS.

Two weeks ago a Gallup poll reflected that 82% of Americans think we are on the wrong track.


Trump offers change...Bernie offered change.


But the Dems, using the corrupt DNC elected someone totally unassociated with change...someone who thinks everything is pretty good and there are no big concerns...she is running for an Obama third term.


Of the 82% who want change you can be sure that many of those saw hope in the Sanders candidacy...many of those are the victims of growing income inequality....Hillary didn't speak to them, at all!


In 2008 Obama said this:  "Hillary Clinton.  She'll say anything and change nothing.  It's time to turn the page"


What happened Obama?


If Trump wins it will be because the dems offered a tired, old, stale, status quo message... They could have gone for the fresh message that offered real change in Bernie Sanders, someone who consistently polled ahead of Trump in double digits.


We should have turned this page but we fed into the status quo, the scandals, the lies, and corruption, and hawkish foreign policy....


Colossal blunder that could prove fatal.


Why did we need another Clinton term?
