Better not wait for your next life, Jeffrey J., for the time to participate in the dopamine rush of equal rep. while all else rots (in anguish) or wilts (in boredom?), is now. The generation Vanessa talked about earlier – Generationwillneverownahome -- would have known instantly, if Hillary had won the presidency, that she'd have continued sending young people to their deaths in Afghanistan, and talked a lot more about how young people need "to work harder" (read: suffer more). And some of them will soon get over their Obama worship -- which promised the near irresistible vision of pacified parents (end of discord), generations uniting -- and understand too that he'll primarily be about making sure baby-boomers are taken care of while they spend out their remaining years thinking themselves all Green, tolerant (did you know there were no black people in the major leagues in 1940?, and now we have [voted in] a black president!), relevant, and wonderful -- on their way to heaven (while tended to by admiring youngins), surely!
There is nothing bold these days about advancing women's rights. (Unless you long for hell, when the subject of women or race comes up in any conversation, you'd better find means to broadcast your wished identification and thorough support and sympathy!) And don't you see that we've set things up so that people like Harper are going to have such an easy time of it, 'cause all they'll need to do is hire more non-white females to advance destructive policies than the opposition does to hopefully advance nurturing ones -- and the opposition can readily be blocked or broken with charges of racism/sexism? For a taste of what this is like, check out how FOX News tried to identify Ralph Nader as racist (and itself as pure) here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IshiClQqCM
