Prez Hiztory

In the not too distant past...this country had the choice of choices...for our Prez...the country was at war in Vietnam...segregation was coming to an end...politicians could still muffle the media...and in the real world of the people...the country was in chaos and anti-war protests were at a new high...

It was 1972...the GOP had their guy, none other than Richard Nixon...who had his way with the press...you cross him and he x-d you out of any White House conferences...and pretty much ran any which way he wanted to get what he wanted...and this war thing was getting to him...
the Demos...were trying like H to find somebody to beat Nixon...started with Muskie...they got rid of him, because he teared up talking about his wife...too weak...then, George McGovern...anti-war guy...and they had this guv from Alabama, too...George Wallace...what?...so much for integration...

The Demos settled on McGovern...and he chose Tom Eagleton...as his VP...and the press had no limits on the donkies...and found he had shock treatment in his past...remember that?...so George had to axe him...he then chose a member of the Kennedy Clan, Sargent Shriver...and the ticket was complete...

With one of the lowest turnouts ever, Nixon won in a landslide...only Massachusetts and DC voted for McGovern...and that was that...UNTIL...

the Washington Post bucked the system....and investigated this little break in crime at the Watergate Hotel in DC...it was the only media system with balls enough to do so...and the rest is history...

and now...
I am telling you to follow the money...for both candidates...get out of your comfort zone and do some investigation....with the Supreme Court allowing the "Super Pacs"...there are ways to hide your donations...to bypass some of the more open lobbying practices in the past...take a hard look at who is giving...and what they would be getting if their guy gets in...and it's not you or I...it's the .005% of the population that have the real big dough to hide and play with...and coerce the winner...you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours...now, I'm fired up...AGAIN!
