Thinking Outside the Box: Economics and Party Building

It has been correctly observed that if a creature walks, quacks, acts, and looks like a duck, in all likelihood it probably is a duck. So it is with the Democrat and Republican parties who have repeatedly and insidiously conned Black, Brown, Red, Yellow, and White peoples for so very long in the United States. Democrat and Republican party interests and needs are not the same as those of the masses of American people and the peoples of the world. It does not require a rocket scientist to understand that anyone of any color or gender who has been vetted and approved by the party machinery of the Democrat or Republican parties, and supported by corporate advisors and/or the corporate media for the Presidency of the United States, could not possibly have as a priority, the fundamental economic, political, and social interests and human rights of the peoples of this nation, much less the world.

The fact is that neither a donkey nor an elephant can give birth to a lamb or a giraffe, and the Democrat and Republican parties cannot and will not give birth to a humane, honest, politically progressive leader who is not beholden to the U.S. corporate / military apparatus and who is seriously about much needed systemic change. Indeed, such a thing would be a contradiction in terms [i.e. ‘humane, honest, politically progressive’ vs. the ‘Democrat & Republican’ parties]. The present U.S. political system will not, and indeed is incapable of, replacing itself with a system that is dedicatied to ensuring and protecting the welfare and fundamental human rights of the vast majority of the people. Only the masses of people themselves / ourselves can do this. This task is ours and ours alone.
