There is a lot of negative propaganda going on in the United States and around the world by rich organizations that want to control us and divide us for the purpose of making more money and always an increased amount of power.

There is a reason that labor unions are discouraged, and deceptive ways are created to keep us from really knowing what they are up to. They are working hard to remove voting rights of minority groups and eventually everyone else.

I feel that I need to really be careful who I vote for at election time. It’s important for me to do background checks. When it comes to electing a president, I really feel down in my heart that we need to eliminate the Electoral College, which is outdated, and finally allow Americans to use the popular vote, giving the power back to the people, as it should be.

Many times in our history a candidate won the popular vote, but victory went to the Electoral Collage winner. It’s not fair; the advantage goes to powerful group to have its way.

I am encouraged to realize that there are still a lot of good loving people, and rich ones too, that really care and do all they can to make a difference. There is still hope.
