When heads begin to roll.

I suspect Barack Obama finds himself bogged down in Washington politics. The system is firmly entrenched. Obama has to play the game. Otherwise, he'll get nothing done. And so, his ideal agenda gets considerably watered-down. Diluted. Almost to the point of being unrecognizable. I naively thought that Obama could significantly change the system. Instead, he's being engulfed by the system. Even independent-minded maverick Ralph Nader would be helpless if he was president. And that's sad. The system won't change. It will prevail and live on until Americans launch a revolution comparable to the bloody French Revolution in 1789. When heads of lobbyist-controlled politicians begin to roll. --Jim Broede
