10/31 Quote Of The Day: Solutions

"Is there a solution to America’s political malaise? It doesn’t seem politicians affiliated with parties are cutting it. Candidates without the blessing of establishment elites may inspire voters and bring more people into the world of politics. Their naïve exuberance, however, may succumb to apathy or willful ignorance that can consume even the best-intentioned of men. It may be that the only real solution to dislodge the establishment elites is a strong independent voice to buck the current status quo. Our nation needs people to challenge the compromised media’s selective whitewashing of inconvenient stories, ignore polls and focus on the American people and their needs. There are sad lessons from both the Tea Party and the anti-war movements. Are Americans mere apathetic sheep to be led by political whims? Or are we the sons and daughters of those who worked tirelessly for liberty? Will our legacy be one of political corruption or resistance to the cancerous corporatism that has plagued the last decade? The rest of the story is yet to be written. But surely it must be penned by all of its the citizens and not merely by the elites." — Akbar Shabazz, conservative in Georgia
