You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.

Logroll, your video gave me an error, but never mind. I miss Greger, he may have been a far left socialist, but he was also a political realist who viewed all of America, not just the third who make up a political party’s base ignoring the other 2/3rds. His view of the political landscape encompassed everyone, left, right, middle, all of America. Most folks just view the political landscape through either dark red or dark blue colored glasses with old mule’s blinders on which prevents them from seeing the whole political landscape or picture. Greger was one of a few that viewed to total political landscape, everyone, not just the third with identical political ideology, beliefs and views as themselves.


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.

He's welcome to return any time, no one has forced him to leave.
No one even suggested that he leave.
His membership status is unchanged.
I think everyone would like to see him back again but in the end it was his decision to take a vacation.

I know Jeffrey. I have never taken anything said personally on these political sites or got upset at something said about anything. I simply ignore quite a lot of post I think way too partisan to have a decent conversation about. What I liked about Greger was that he was a political realist which took in the entire political scene for all of America, not just a third of it.

It was his choice to take a vacation as you put it. Hopefully he’ll return someday. If not, so be it.
