candidates who don't address that---and name names on the all-star oligarchy list at the top of this country—are simply selling hot air to voters who are not, as the cool kids say, yet WOKE. Obama did a lot of this in 07/08 and ended up surrounding himself with Wall St bankers

Almost like someone could use that fact to unite the country to take it back from the plutocrats and corporations. Basically like some form of serf uprising against our corporate feudal lords.
