The Richter scale is showing signs of tremors in Washington, D.C. Big money is doing everything possible to minimize the earthquakes, at whatever cost, so that Hillary Clinton defeats Bernie Sanders.
Money is evil — it buys power and it needs to be removed from politics so that there is a fair democracy. It is unfair when voters choose a candidate, only to be forced to take a back seat when delegates supersede the voters’ choice.
I have to give Donald Trump credit. Out of 17 candidates running for the presidency, he is the only one remaining. To deny him the nomination would be an insult to the voters.
In my opinion, without a doubt, the best person to beat Clinton is Sanders. If only he would run as an independent. He deserves a lot of credit for speaking out against corruption and big money.
I encourage voters who are unhappy with either party to vote their consciences.
Joe Voisine, North Monmouth
