Cheaters Gonna Cheat, Cheat, Cheat, Cheat...
Truth is, plenty of Republicans like this status-quo stagnation:
- Don't address the immigration issue in Washington: pass on to local governments and school districts the burden of the lack of planning for all the lives already here;
- Reward those "Too Big To Fail" by making them even bigger...;
- Nevermind the income inequality that is turning our nation into a Great Britain, where one is locked into their social status via networking and connections, and even education cannot help lift a person above their career station.
America deserves to live 4 years under a Hillary Clinton reign, if we are going to cheat the winner of so many primary contests out of the ability to compete in the general election.
If "success" means growing up to play the career game like Ted Cruz, with the accompanying results -- afterall, everyone can see the man's track record of leadership in Washington -- then it's a game not worth playing...
Teach Your Children Well.
You can look at the menu but you just can't eat.
You can feel the cushions but you can't have a seat.You can dip your foot in the pool but you can't have a swim.You can serve the punishment but you can't commit the sin.You can build a mansion but you can't live in it.You're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win...You can see the summit but you can't reach it.It's the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit.Doctor says you're cured... but you still feel the pain.Aspirations in the clouds but your hopes go down the drain...
If personal character means so little in Ted Cruz' America, then the country deserves what it has coming... wait until the carnage comes home here again. Divided We Fall, and cheaters never win.
ADDED: Ironically, America is turning its back on the lessons hard-earned in Europe about assimilation and civic participation:
If the establishment elites are allowed to tell the people of both parties that their voices do not matter, then their voices will be heard in other ways. =Violence, in Brussels for those unassimilated into their civic fold, seemingly with little way up or out...
In America,
we want to encourage more participation, more grass-root growth, more seeds taking root, more voices speaking out to diversify the range of our collective conversations.
This is a telling time:
do the political and media elites listen to our frustration with their lack of progress, or do they turn their backs on the American people, telling them that this is a top-down kingdom -- like a military or police hierarchy -- where we pay lip service to ideas of equality, assimilation, participation, competition and strength -- all the while protecting our political minorities clustering at the top?
Choose Wisely.
I choose open dialogue and building, over violence and tearing things down. I choose the rule of law and the spirit of fair play over slick trickery and minority conniving. I choose not to compete in a rigged system, because I know my personal worth. I am bigger than the role assigned me by those who wish to hold me back. I will not cooperate in my subjugation, I choose to be free.
