Hard to recognize America today.
The coming 2016 election takes on a surreal tone, as real estate tycoon and reality TV star Donald Trump surges on the Republican side, while died-in-the-wool 1960s style socialist Bernie Sanders seems to be making inroads with the Dems.
And then there's political correctness. The PC police work overtime to censor any candidate who dares stray from narrow yet ambiguous party approved talking points.
But wait, there's more.
Politics is just one of the areas where the so-called fundamentally changed America is starting to show its dark side. Rising levels of brazen depravity have a growing grip on our urban centers but, again, to discuss such things is contrained by politcal correctness.
What's the best course of action from here?
Do we just keep playing the tired appearance of a two party system?
Can Trump or Sanders shake things up enough that a corrupt status quo begins to give-way?
Any chance Trump and Sanders are just more distractions to keep us from digging into other alernatives?
Time to start thinking outside the box. Especially the box that political elites have worked so hard to put you in.
