We complain incessently about the lack of good leadership in this country. And we complain about the fact that there are only two "registered" parties. Who do you think controls these things? The people? Maybe. But not really. For now, elected officials make the decisions. Why? We let them. Yes, we have a democratic system. (Federal really, but that's another posting.) Unless we are willing to make change, by DEMANDING change, en masse, nothing will ever happen. You can complain all you like. Until people actually take a stand. Stand up for what you believe in. It's the only way to make a difference. And if you want a president who will effectively help all interest groups (not likely, but a nice dream), you have to find her/him and VOTE for that person.
