John Fund of the National Review recently penned a piece suggesting that "none of the above" be a choice on State presidential ballots. This should be a choice on all races as a means of bringing the parties quickly to heel and boost voter turnout to record levels!

From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
From Screwed:
"Once again, Thom Hartmann hits the bull’s eye with a much needed exposé of the so-called ‘free market.’ Anyone concerned about the future of our nation needs to read Screwed now."
Unfortunately the Nevada situation is not over. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch today printed Dana Milbank's column from two days ago, https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/does-bernie-sanders-want-to-be-t... It was filled with misinformation and unsubstantiated accusations, and subtitled "Candidate's increasingly harsh rhetoric could hurt the party in November." In a box they highlight the quote from Bernie, "We are taking on virtually the entire Democratic establishment." To me the fact that they think this sounds "bad" demonstrates that the powers that be just don't get it, they are lumping Bernie in with Trump as a kook, and they refuse to deal with the fact that people are angry with what has become of our economy, government and politics.
