Being an older person with plenty of life experiences, I saw dozens, if not hundreds, of candidates' political campaigns. Yes, they all have one thing in common. That being, each candidate wants to be the savior of the people and they all claim that they can make life better for the majority, than any other candidate who seeks the same Public Office within the Federal, State or Local Governments of the United States of America.

Well, who do you remember, during the last 40 years, who actually made life better for the majority of the people who they represent during the time that they held Political Office? Try as I have, I can't thing of one person that truly made a positive difference in the quality of life for the majority of, "We People of the United States Of America." I really wish that someone would prove me wrong, at least in a few cases.

So too, I can tell you what did happen during the last 40 years, and what did happen surely wasn't for the well being of the majority. Instead, most of what those elected Politicians did was for the benefit of the richest people on Earth, no matter where on Earth those rich people live. You see, they are the ones who contribute the most money to the candidates who seek all of those Public Offices.

As a result, the primaries and the caucuses is just a way for the rich to see who among the candidates is the most desirable person of the majority. Believe it or not, the people still vote for and elect whoever is lucky enough to win the nomonation of the Political Party in which they belong.

So, not only do the people see and decide who will win the election, the rich also have a better idea who might win and they do their best to influence those possible winners to support the goals of those rich people for continued financial support. In other words, the rich support those who support the rich.

Can it be that all of our currently elected Politicians, who have done nothing worthwhile for the majority, are just paid "Yes People" for the super rich? Your guess is as good as mine, but the track records of our Politicians do tell the true story of who are getting the benefits from those who we trust to insure the safety and well being of the majority of, "We People of the United States of America."

If you don't believe me, kindly answer the following questions for yourself. Why were tens of millions of the jobs of the majority allowed to be taken away and given to Foreigners in Foreign Countries? Why are an estimated 12-20 million
