2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumBernie supporters are not 'becoming' desperate
We have been desperate for a long time. Obama said Hope for Change. Well, that didn't happen.
We are desperate for a clean environment, no more wars, no more black kids getting slaughtered by police, solutions to avert global warming, jobs, clean drinking water, and the list goes on and on.
We don't see the republicans or Hillary bringing it. We don't see the same old politicians doing anything much to make the US into a more perfect union.
Anyone who is not desperate for real change is someone not paying attention.

(50,130 posts)1. the corollary: "some" people are desperate to maintain the status quo.
And that is pathetic, considering the risks to the planet and especially its fauna.

That one is not paying attention.
We also are desperate for better health care and higher education that is affordable for kids.
