The rich ruling class run this country and the Presidents are just managers of their wealth.
The middle class has been severly weakened and the USA is one of the least unionized industiral countries on Earth. The "big bad government" myth is peddled to the poor envious white working class males that think the big bad government has given too much to women, Blacks, and immigrants. The Tea Party is bank rolled by the Koch brothers and we know where they stand in the Rich Ruling class. In fact. you can inter connect all these organizations with the international ones like the World Economic Forum, IMF, World Bank, and World Trade Organization. It boggles most of the working class how the members of the Tea Party adopt the agenda of the Rich Ruling class and conservative poor to middle income whites vote against their own interests. That’s the magic of the Rich upper class… they will use the peasant to vote against his own interest by appealing to wedge politics, like abortion, race, immigration and once they have these poor whites on their side, they cleverly include taxes, deregulations, welfare reform into that agenda. They cut taxes and go to war and then want to cut social programs yelling "debt! debt!"... The Democrats ain't better either. They talk a populist line but look at our President's policies and a lot of Dems voted for the war in Iraq
Even if blacks were unified and voted together as a significant bloc, the two party system isn't in their interests because the two parties are just different fronts for the larger interests.
Let's just go back to the debates. Our black president, claimed he introduced the toughest Wall Street/Banking regulations since the great depression, on paper yes but he never added it was intentionally riddled with holes and loopholes some 10,000 confusing pages after pages that were meant to be never practical. He claimed that by closing loopholes in the tax system some magical revenue will appear he had four years to do that if he wanted to. Finally Obama never mentioned that his job advisor was an X-CEO of General Electric one of the largest companies that exported jobs to China.
None of them had specifics, they claimed a pie in the sky if they were giving the chance to rule the US for the next 4 years, Romney constantly argued since he was a business man he knew naturally how to run a business, but government is not business and the aim and the entire idea of a government is not about profit maximization. Romney claimed by cracking up on China (the people that pay his welfare) he will create jobs, if China was forced to inflate its currency, how?? It boggles the mind since China's currency will always be lower than the US dollar. He claimed he can create jobs by making America attractive for business (typical talk, of neo-liberals) how? by further deregulations and tax cuts and pandering to big business and naturally through water down environmental and labor laws and whooping the working class and making them so desperate that they will be willing to work for a loaf of bread. But he never mentioned the fact his buddies and his class exported US jobs to China in the first place and that himself at once a CEO for a company that mainly outsourced jobs to third world countries.
Election season is a good show for the peasant and wage slaves, next month we will vote for the same old system and 10 years from now nothing will change. The wage-class will be fukked and another 2 actors will debate again and the peasant will forget as usual and we will be fooled throughout their life and one day we will wake up old, tired, poor looking back at their life how many times we were fooled.
I don't even know how to respond...
