Well at least we are not going straight into a war with Russia
or so it seems, but really people why are we so surprised
about racism and slavery, America has always been
that in spades, just what was done to the Native Americans
and is still being done, the left use to be anti-war for workers
and for civil rights, now the powers that be figured out
how to manipulate that energy, the late sixties was an awakening
the assassination of JFK was the wind blowing at its back
the same people that did 9/11 and wanted their new world
order, we can see this in what the evil corporations have done
to our food, air, and water, the drugs they give children
and most adults, the person that lost this election was very
much a part of this new world order, but having said that
on the surface the person that won the election, claims
to not be part of the new world order, but he is a product
of America that enslaved and oppressed the Native people
most of our real history is not in history books in class rooms
this is the karma of this country, that we can't get spiritual leaders
who don't have to slog through the shit storm to make this country
great, not "again" because America has yet to be great if you ask me
we have always been at war with our selves and everybody else
people who were against WWI were put in prison and killed
how is the Trump going to make America great, by making it into
a big casino, he says a lot of the right things, but he also says a lot
of wrong things, there is very little time for greatness, we have had
the Bushwack years and Obummer years , and nothing but war war war

"There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part; and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus and you've got to make it stop.""

Mario Savio anti-war speech on Dec. 2 1964 from Spraul Plaza at the University of Berkeley, Calif.

I was going to put Amerikkk, I remember a poet years ago in the early 70's that had a book of poems titled Amerikkk. All this election circus what a drag.
