Humor Title: Jimmy Carter: The U.S. Is an “Oligarchy With Unlimited Political Bribery” Former president Jimmy Carter said Tuesday on the nationally syndicated radio show the Thom Hartmann Program that the United States is now an “oligarchy” in which “unlimited political bribery” has created “a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors.” Both Democrats and Republicans, Carter said, “look upon this unlimited money as a great benefit to themselves.” Carter was responding to a question from Hartmann about recent Supreme Court decisions on campaign financing like Citizens United. Transcript: HARTMANN: Our Supreme Court has now said, “unlimited money in politics.” It seems like a violation of principles of democracy. … Your thoughts on that? CARTER: It violates the essence of what made America a great country in its political system. Now it’s just an oligarchy, with unlimited political bribery being the essence of getting the nominations for president or to elect the president. And the same thing applies to governors and U.S. senators and congress members. So now we’ve just seen a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors, who want and expect and sometimes get favors for themselves after the election’s over. … The incumbents, Democrats and Republicans, look upon this unlimited money as a great benefit to themselves. Somebody’s who’s already in Congress has a lot more to sell to an avid contributor than somebody who’s just a challenger.
from the comments section: Bernard Louis Liberto August 11 2015, 2:00 p.m. What a statement from this former President, Carter, oddly around the time of his presiding, the nation began to embrace economy environment and other unwholesome features as divestitures of warfare mechanisms devices and methodologies terminologies there from parleyed as monetary systems when the terms were actually from extreme weapons being concealed, this gagging is in part do to his silencing and disinformation style and actions; and, it continued until today whereby the economy measuring the worth of Citizens, in terms of money is the value by the matriculations of science and technology in face of integrity of grace of dignity, it is not socialism however quite, but capital measuring of enumerative penury estimations something intolerable to the former America, as slavery ensues…and dignity is lost, but for the defence cover up of informations that were stolen and lost to organized crime these transitions came about, disinforming Citizens was illegal and the consequences of the propaganda is what is now educated as instruments of value, economy, not civil business, and environment. Carter played a large role in the continued cover up, of what earlier others like George Bush had clearly warned early 1970s. It is grievously sad to hear this… Poster Comment: As if Carter wasn't owned by David Rockefeller.

The comments section bit that I included is either an ESL doper run amok with a thesaurus, a troll having fun with a random word generator, or an AIbot that was booted into the wild for its inability to pass the Turing test.
#2. To: Anthem (#1) I tried to decipher Alberto's comment, but yeah, it's gibberish. High- sounding, hifalutin' gibberish, but gibberish.

Carter failed to notice that it was Hitlery who spent twice as much on her campaign as tight-fisted Trump. Trump did manage to suck up $2 billion worth of free media, on top of his already celebrity status as a longrunning TV host and author of a very popular book and the decades he spent on the pages of NYC media outlets. Hillary lost despite a huge advantage from these unlimited donors that she had. Trump won not because of putting in big money but by taking advanantage of libmedia trying to make him the GOP nominee but then defeat him later. Libmedia created their own FrankenTrump, a tale of horror for the media scribblers. They know they did this to themselves and have to live with it for at least 4 years.
#4. To: Anthem (#0) (Edited) It seems that sombody is saying, "If somebody is willing to be bought, people will try to buy him." There's sin and corruption by both parties.
