Senator Moscow Turtle McConnell Has To Go!
Moscow Mitch Time Is Up: In the 80’s, an era when the vast majority of the most educated and diverse generation was born-millennials, the year 1985 is when Senator McConnell was elected to the Senate. Additionally, in 1989 the UN warned about Climate Change, in short 30 years later nothing has been done on Climate Change and Mitch McConnell has screwed an entire generation(s). 35 years Moscow Mitch has been in the Senate and has done absolutely nothing but set the nation and many generations behind another 35 years. Sidebar: in 2017, I wrote an article why elected officials should not be in office for 30 years or more-Mitch McConnell is a clear example. To constantly debate and fight the same issues for 35 years and in some cases for 50 years, illustrates an epic failure of our government and the dysfunction of the government when there are elected officials in office for too long.

Millennials Are Financially Screwed Over
Millennials are the largest and most diverse generation to exist. The creators of Facebook, Snapchat and any social media website that exists were created by millennials. With all this innovation and creativity from the largest and most diverse generation, we were screwed over. How my generation was screwed over, is due to creating bad economic policies and continuing to debate the same old economic issues which should have been solved long ago. An example of the same old economic issues is raising the minimum wage, we can see it’s way past time for America to have a livable wage where the people can afford the basic necessities to live and Millennials should not be under-employed make less than Baby Boomers and previous generations. Recap: in a previous article, I discussed how America is losing progress because we failed to learn from history, specifically the 1912 and 1940 elections. These two elections have a common theme with the 2016 elections, and that is Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Wallace and Bernie Sanders all understood the future, these men who received all the support from the people-coughs, but was undermined by the establishment are the people we need running for office and running our government. Millennials were screwed over because the previous generations did not understand the future and they still do not understand the future.

1 Year Later Keystone Has A Pipeline Leak
A year ago, there were massive protests around the issue of building the Keystone pipeline. The key reason for major opposition to the Keystone pipeline is due to harmful environmental damage; if a pipeline leak were to occur there would be contamination of the environment. Native Americans and environmentalist were treated inhumanely protesting the Keystone pipeline, they were hosed with cold water at sub-freezing temperatures, rubber bullets were shot at them and law enforcement viciously tore down their camps. News of the Keystone pipeline leak is shattering because our government failed to listen to the people, they are the cause of the inhumane treatment protestors received. As a result, citizens of South Dakota and the environment will suffer. Moreover, Nebraska approving the extended Keystone XL pipeline illustrates the ignorance of local elected officials ignoring the issue of climate change and steadily pursuing a terrible policy harmful to the environment.

The Good Ole Boys Club: An Antiquated System That No Longer Belongs In America
The Good ole boys club is a club where men like Roy Moore are protected and get away with despicable behavior. This club has been in America for centuries, it was created during an era where only men who look like Roy Moore had sole authority and was the only governing force in our nation. Furthermore, the good ole boys club has a negative connotation to it because men like Roy Moore, who violate women, are always protected and are never punished for the decorum. Roy Moore is the example of a serial predator and is part of the hypocrisy of white right-wingers who claim to “fight for the unborn”, but fail to protect the innocent that are living. In 2017, America is literally fighting over whether or not a child molester should be elected to the U.S. Senate, a position in which Roy Moore will have the ability to create and pass laws governing millions of people. This good ole boys club is responsible for the turmoil our nation is going through and the trauma it has caused to innocent people. The good ole boys club does not belong in our society and Roy Moore does not belong in the U.S. Senate.

Hillary and The DNC Screws Over America's Progress
Never in the history of our politics has America received big surprises coming from both parties. First, Paul Manafort and his long-time business associate Rick Gates turned themselves into the FBI. Both men have 12 charges against them and one of those charges is a conspiracy against the United States. An hour later, the news reports a former campaign volunteer, George Papadopoulos, has been cooperating with the FBI since July. This means there is information that will force more people to resign from the Trump administration and the impeachment process is not too far away. The other surprising news America received was former interim DNC chair, Donna Brazile spilling the beans about what took place in 2016. For the record, as a Bernie supporter, this is an I told you so. However, we are beginning to learn just how deep Hillary and the DNC rigged the 2016 elections. What Politico has published from Donna Brazile's new book Hacks — The Inside Story and Breakdowns That Put Donald Trump in Office is information the people should know.

Too Bad for Democracy: The Elections of 1912 and 2016
In political history, there are events that change the course of a nation for good or for the worst and these are events both Democrats and Republicans should learn from. The election of 1912 between Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, William Taft and Eugene Debs is one that Democrats should have studied and learned from, this election illustrated to the people and our political system a multi-party system works.
