Presidential Bid

Little Savage™ Makes a Presidential Bid

First, let’s look at the Definitions of a “BID” 1). Offer: propose a payment.I propose an offer of $10,000 for the Office of President. The Presidential Auctioneer says, “Not enough!” Do I hear One Hundred thousand? Ten Million? More? How much does it cost to buy the most powerful position in the world? Do I hear Ten Billion Dollars! SOLD!!! to the man behind the curtain.   I guess my bid of $10,000 is a bit short.  Pocket change for some.  No change for most of us. 2) Wish: invoke upon as in “bid farewell”  Do you think if we wish hard enough, we can bid them all farewell, send the current crooks and corporately owned candidates to Mars? 3) Ask to show one’s hand as in a game of cards.  No body who runs for office ever cheats or fails to disclose do they? 4) Ask for or request earnestly.  But — as Jim Hightower says, You don’t get the pig out of the water by saying, “Here Piggie Piggie.” Ya really gotta do it in earnest. 5) An attempt to get something, as in “he made a bid to gain attention”  If I make a bid, will I get any attention? Not so much without the mainstream corporate media repeating it endlessly 24/7. 6) A formal proposal to buy at a specified price.  That’s more like it. This is only a problem if you are not one of the one percent or the .01 percent. Back to my original bid   Who says I can’t be President! The last several POTUS’s have been cartoon characters, clowns or cariacatures of themselves. Do I really have to do this again??!!! Way back in 2012 I wrote:  Aren’t we lucky Mr. Governator from California doesn’t qualify! And, if one goes into the wayback machine, Ronald MacDonald Reagan right now looks really sane compared to the current batch. We had Mr. Smooth “You give HOPE a bad name”. Who can beat that? The Stepford Candidate and his Missus? It’s a cartoon race. As always. Charade. Blue Team versus Red Team. Root for your color, but it’s really just another fall sport.Only the build up to the finals takes four years. Another problem with the political landscape today is that the safety protocols for the Holodeck in Toon Town are not engaged. Real things happen when these cartoons win — like wars, loss of freedom, drone attacks, torture, bailouts for banksters. depressions. As long as we THE PEOPLE keep rooting for the lessers of two evils, and keep believing in the EVIL-ARCHY, no real Change will happen. Hope we can figure this one out before it’s too late. Why doesn’t  the Federation just send a starship and break that “Prime Directive” non-intervention protocols and help us out here!?
