Your really are right. This two party nonsense has really been a one party system for a very long time. It is a very elaborate charade, that is primarily sponsored by Congress, to keep 100% of the people fooled for as close to 100% of the time as possible. And in general, it has worked. It is a money game, and who has the money wins the game. The poor and impoverished in America usually lose out. I became disabled 3 years ago, and I cannot tell you how radically my life has changed in going from a person who could work, to a person on Social Security Disability and Medicare. I am practically a non-entity now, because my Blue Cross is only a Medicare "gap" coverage, it isn't like having "real" insurance. And when you are Medicare eligible, you are no longer eligible for that "real" insurance. No one can even sell it to you, because Congress made it illegal to sell you a policy. You are stuck. And it is worse than between a rock and a hard place, as the saying goes. So you had better pay attention to that voting booth and who is going to be sitting in those seats for the next 2, 4 or 6 years. it will make a tremendous difference to you and a whole lot of other people.

President Bush deserves credit for all he did in the fight against AIDS.

Voting will not be enough. Depending on where you live, voting may be meaningless. The mainstream Democratic Party apparat have made it abundantly clear that they will sell out anyone and anything as long as it means being the lead pigs at the trough. It's important to remember that the US is in fact a one-party state (the Money Party) no matter the nice distinctions the two factions like to front. If we are going to save the programs that mean the difference between health and sickness, life and death, for so many of us, we should vote where it makes sense, and be out in the streets, #OccupyingEverything, and refusing to allow 'business as usual' to take place unless the needs of people are protected against the endless greed of the oligarchy.
