The "stars" impel, they don't compel. The fault is not in our stars, but in ourselves. People make decisions; prediction of human behavior is imperfect. Decisions have consequences. That's what I was talking about in this post. This is just how I sum up the implications of the facts about what people decided Tuesday. And the political landscape of the next 4 years makes it clear that there is little we can do about this shift back to reaction and regression. We'll just have to deal with what Americans have decided the best we can, and cope on the state and local level and in our economic and cultural activities. The only change toward progress now politically is to prepare for the long term. Maybe Bernie will run, maybe he won't. Maybe he'll win if he does; maybe he won't. As I said it's too hard to predict now. If he runs, it will not be an easy call to just say Bernie will win, based on astrology and the signs I have told you about. It will be up to the people to decide again. And given the peoples' track record, it doesn't look very good.
