Democrats, Republicans, Tea Party, Occupy and The Coffee Movement
There have been so many different things happen during the run up to nominating this year's presidential candidates.
Truth seems to be in the eye of the beholder and objective facts are less important than scoring points with your followers.
You seem to be able to say whatever you please with very little consequence and you can walk it back if you it doesn't play well in Peoria.
The democrats are having to deal with the folks that came out during the occupy movement, and the republicans need to deal with their Tea Party folks. The Coffee movement which asks for civility and compromise is finishing somewhere behind the also rans that dropped out of the process or were assigned to the kiddie table during the early debates.
Both parties seem to be girding themselves for conventions that may not go as smooth as planned.
At various time during this seemingly endless process, I have felt Donald Trump was not a serious candidate for the office for which he is campaigning. Making America great is a wonderful slogan but there seems to be very few policies that can be discussed to allow others or me to cast a vote for him.
Hillary Rodham Clinton has an impressive resume of service and experience. She also has a ton of baggage.
Which leads me to something I've heard many times before. "Throw all of them out of office". That is everybody except my local representative and the senators in my state.
And the beat goes on.
