after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear."

And no one wants to hear the truth. Otherwise, they would listen to what Ron Paul says and he would be the nominee.

    Very true, and cal is absolutely right. The current choices of Romney and Obama are the globalists choices for us. Don't waste another vote: VOTE FOR RON PAUL

    A good start at describing the best a democracy has to offer.

    Eight years later, and the establishment globlists are still trying to foist their pawns on the electorate. Maybe after decades now of Americans actually waking up and saying 'enough is enough,' we are ready to embody the spirit of independence and self-determination that made America. Brexit and other independence movements are happening now. When the populace in general are self-sufficient, they are naturally prosperous. The older generations remember prosperity while witnessing the 'transformation' of America into debtor nation #1 with no end in sight. Let's just hope that you can't fool all of the people all of the time ...

    Democracy is the appropriate and proper reckoning with the truth, and disseminating that truth all pervasively. The advocate of democracy has nothing to hide.

    Sillik, your theocratic propaganda once again lacks fact, evidence and truth. Sillik, you once said you wouldn't say something you couldn't prove. Please use a lawful procedure or scientific method to demonstrate a majority vote is anything but a majority vote. Please define truth and how it correlates to an accepted lie that has been given by a dictator. Sillik, in your personal god complex, you — not being part of the pack (socialized behavior) and you being the only socialist you know of (a lot oxymoronic on your part), please tell us what you have created that surpassed the challenge (???); and, how does socialism challenge socialized behavior.

    Mike, Norwalk, I can only explain that I didn't say a majority vote wasn't a majority vote.  Socialism I can also explain, does not challenge socialized behavior, but accepts it and that is the challenge in the "antisocial social club" (psychotic) normal behavioral atmosphere.

    Mike, Norwalk, I just don't understand the rest of your post, but have a good day all the same. Maybe I understood none of your post, but I did my best all the same to respond. Socialism is the challenge of socialized behavior to create.

    Mike, Norwalk, not sure what you are asserting, but I presume you are asking what contributions have I made?  Mike, simply put, I believe I have drawn us closer to our adult role.  Lao Tsu states; "fine sounding words are not true, the truth is not fine sounding."  This is the expression of a child and the typical conventional response.  The adult however, through finding their social qualities, appreciate the truth and find that the truth is fine sounding and fine sounding words are true.
