Democracy is in for a shift, but I’m not counting it out yet. Three things need to happen over the next 2-yrs. 1) the Democrats need to smell the roses, or something stronger, and realize their base has shifted and rejoin them. Remember the GOP did this after losing to President Obama in ‘08 and there is literally a different party under that banner now. 2) the Republicans are going to get a reality check. As this administration unfurls its programs it will have unintended consequences on their own base. Let’s see how that plays out. 3) America itself has to refurbish itself. The only analogy I can think of is we’ve gotten out of shape. Many of us work hard with less than desirable results. The government is slow to respond, the separate of classes is growing and we are, as a society, becoming more narcissistic. We need we tighten our belts, bring our personal and government debt down and figure out how to communicate with each other again.

Me recuerda Mexico en los tiempos de Lopez Portillo (80's), con su negro Durazo (DOD) y todo. Esta película - Yo ya la vi.
