    And this article she wrote clinches it for me... if she could only win the Democratic nomination, she would get my vote.

    and for those who need a video -

    The key for me though is her world view

    She is an idealist (consciousness has primacy). IMO the world only has one shot to alter the direction of self-destruction I happen to perceive it is on and that is for a shift in consciousness to come forth which, first and foremost, that rejects materialism as the prevailing cosmological, metaphysical world view.

    Without that (again... just my opinion) this particular version of "The Grand Experiment" (meant as a metaphor) is toast.

    There's just one problem here, Brother. Both the US Democrats and the US Republicans are controlled by the same corporate entities. As a result, while the methods will differ between the Democrats and the Republicans, the objectives will never change.

    Marianne Williamson represents a break with the paradigm that thrives on those objectives, so the Democrats are never going to let her get away with it, any more than that they were going to let Bernie Sanders get away with it while he was running against Hillary Clinton for Democratic presidential candidate, or that the Republicans were willing to let Ron Paul get away with it.

    The US bipartisan system is a self-reinforcing autocracy. Either you're on the inside and then you toe the line, or you're on the outside and then you don't matter.

    As an odds maker by trade I never say never to anything that is possible. But as an odds maker by trade I put her chances of getting the nomination at 1 chance above zero. We both agree the game is rigged. Regardless though, I still enjoy rooting for those I perceive to be "the good guys" or when its the choice between low life's I root against the one I perceive to be the lowest. That's just me.

    May be some truth in that as she was the most google searched candidate but had on polling afterwards well less than 1 %.

    It would be nice if true. The more I study the machinations of this world, the less I am comfortable in believing that. Call me jaded.
