Default Can Any of the current Candidates Truly say they represent Change?

They are all part of the worst Congress ever! What change can Obama truly claim to offer?

Obama will change your taxes.
Obama will change the way you think about black people, through government force if necessary, of course.
Obama will change this nations standing in the world, by destroying it internally.
Obama will change the choices you make about your life, through government force again.
Obama will change your concept of yourself as an individual to just one of the many.
Obama will decide what you should spend your hard earned money on.
Obama will change how much money you get. You get less.

It's increasingly likely that Democrats will pick up seats in congress.

With a filibuster proof majority, he'll be able to do what he wants.

Who told you that nonsense???

Congress' approval ratings bottomed out to the lowest approval ratings in history after The Democrats took the majority. So you think the American people want more of that eh? I agree that the voting public can be gullable and sometimes downright stupid, but I don't think they are quite that stupid!!!

Not a single one does.

They may tinker with the status quo. But they sure aren't changing it.

The status quo needs a complete overhaul and no politician that is going to appeal to the masses is going to be promising that anytime soon. One of the main reasons is because the masses apparently don't care about changing the horrible system.

And you call this democracy? Someone can do whatever they want to do if they get elected? That's not democracy, that's dictatorship.

I can't believe this, but I actually agree with you. The founding fathers never intended there be career politicians.

So, you're saying 6 years of the Bush presidency was a dictatorship.
