Financial markets are tanking, Middle East tensions are escalating and the American political system is in a cycle unlike any other ever seen.
The Democrats are skipping steps in our traditional electoral process. Tenets once seen as basic, even sacred, no longer seem to apply. Things like robust competition between candidates, basic consent of the governed regarding rules and process, the opportunity to cast one’s vote for those ostensibly tapped to represent your interests. These items are evidently passé since “the future is now.”
These “shortcuts” are creating an electoral environment that threatens the rights and future freedom of all Americans – regardless of party, ideology or even interest in politics.
Lou Ann Anderson of Political Pursuits and Lynn Woolley of Planet Logic break down today’s headlines including their analysis of potential Democratic vice president candidates. They discuss the way the world is today and what might be ahead.
Lou Ann Anderson worked in central Texas talk radio as both a host and producer and currently hosts Political Pursuits: The Podcast. Her tenure as Watchdog Wire–Texas editor involved covering state news and coordinating the site’s citizen journalist network. As a past Policy Analyst with Americans for Prosperity–Texas, Lou Ann wrote and spoke on a variety of issues including the growing issue of probate abuse in which wills, trusts, guardianships and powers of attorney are used to loot assets from intended heirs or beneficiaries.
