    I would like to bring up the notion that the oligarchs hate democracy. They do not want their power interrupted or interfered with in any way. This is why we only have illusions of democracy in our society. The more I see hear, read about the power and control the oligarchs are exerting over the election process, government, Wall St. ect. the sicker and more determined I become to go against them…

    Paul Craig Roberts has an interesting take on Hillary Clinton’s qualifications for the Presidency, http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/04/13/president-killary-would-the-world-survive-hillary-clinton/. He lays out the financial benefits that have accrued to the Clintons since Bill left office. They’ve both been busy collecting huge “speaking fees” from needy corporations.

    Wondering if there is anything quite so Clinton as this. Clinton in a nutshell. In the encyclopedia entry for Clinton, a picture of the skit with a picture of Hillary saying it was someone else’s idea.
