Now Is The Time When Democrats Have A Choice

Americans are fond of complaining that they don’t have a choice, don’t have control over their lives, much less their government. That’s ironic, given that they live in a democracy and in fact have more control over their lives than most other people at most other time and places in human history.

The Democratic Party has been a disappointment in 2007. That’s an unavoidable conclusion. The promises of the 2006 election have not been met.

However, members of the Democratic Party have a choice. They can exert control. They can make the Democratic Party theirs once again, and take it away from the corrupt leadership that has led it astray.

They have that power, if they vote in their states’ primary elections. Sadly, most Democrats won’t bother to try. They won’t bother to vote, to elect their own political party’s presidential nominee.

Are you a Democrat in Florida? You could vote for Barack Obama:

Are you a Democrat in Kansas? You could vote for Dennis Kucinich:

Are you a Democrat in Nevada? You could vote for Chris Dodd:

Are you a Democrat in Tennessee? You could vote for Hillary Clinton:

Or, you could forfeit your choice, and just stay at home. You could just complain that you don’t have a choice, after you threw it away.
