Who do you want for President in 2016?

[scorched]

The other day I was on the bus talking to a fellow. He was probably in his mid-20s, and trying to cobble together enough part-time jobs to earn a living. We talked politics - Dem to Dem - and we both got to talking about the revolution to come. Don't know that anyone who can afford to run for president can hold him- or herself out there for the common (wo)man. The one per-centers had better watch out.

(Lord, wouldn't I love to have to worry about a coming revolution from the 1% side. Chance would be a fine thing!)

I say what they say in Brewsters Millions, vote for none of the above.

And I darn near wrote a book on your 1% and the what they should watch out for. Not attacking, but wishing you know the perspective of someone like me in the one 1%, and knowing I too am on here because I don't have tons of money to throw at expensive college per credit hours. Not everyone lives in glitz and glamor, as I pay about 38% in fed and state taxes, so my friends who fall in the so called 99% have almost as much net income as I do because of it. Not comparing my life to someone with multiple jobs, but there is a lot of mis-information out there. We as a nation need to reduce spending across the board, but my opinion is that SSN, Medicare, Medicade and other safety net programs account for 60% of the budget while the Military accounts for 20%, so it's easier to reduce the 60% than the 20%. Only other opinion is to flat tax everyone.

For the record, my isidewith.com was almost dead middle centrist, I drive a kia, because thats what I can afford, no one mows my lawn or cleans my house, and I donate exactly ZERO dollars to political campaigns.
