[Peace-discuss] Read this or George W. Bush will be president the rest of your life

[Morton K. Brussel]

   "The people can have anything they want.
                      The trouble is, they do not want anything.
                      At least they vote that way on election day."
                                      Eugene Debs, American socialist  
leader, early 20th century

    "How to get people to vote against their interests and to really  
think against
                             their interests is very clever. It's the  
cleverest ruling class that I have ever
                            come across in history. It's been 200  
years at it. It's superb."
                                                                       
Gore Vidal

Another interesting view of the American electoral system comes from  
Cuban leader Raúl Castro. He recently noted that the United States  
pits two identical parties against one another, and joked that a  
choice between a Republican and Democrat is like choosing between  
himself and his brother Fidel.

"We could say in Cuba we have two parties: one led by Fidel and one  
led by Raúl, what would be the difference?" he asked. "That's the  
same thing that happens in the United States ... both are the same.  
Fidel is a little taller than me, he has a beard and I don't."[6]
