You may begin by attempting to express your ideas rather than revel in others misery. What is it thats said, misery loves misery (or something like that - I'm not going to waste my time Googleing it).

Why don't you articulate yourself on a level more consistent with a 60 year old than that of a juvenile whose team just scored a touchdown?

I'm sure Hoppy appreciates you coming to his aid, regardless of how childish that aid finds itself. Enjoy yourself. Have you bothered actually asking yourself what it is that makes you so immature?

About half of them have decided to do nothing but sabotage plans of the other half. It's a totally broken system, and what's worse is the people breaking it are getting rewarded for it.

The U.S. will likely be one giant corporation, with pre-approved corporate-political candidates. If it isn't already.

I think its only a matter of time before corporations take over our schools and train future workers and executives along with the basics.

My only hope is the internet. It used to be expensive to reach a large audience with traditional media. But traditional media is dying anyway. Things like YouTube and social media became major problems for some candidates last time around ..
