I am just sad and disappointed that I my 2010 heart attack did not let me go while I was still disillusioned. Obama's election had made me think this country was finally moving out of the dark ages and I felt so much hope for the future. And I was so wrong. The American people are as ugly at heart as it was when I was a kid. No progress whatsoever over my lifetime.
