That's the poll quesiton. For moi, it's who the fuck is Colin Kaepernick?What do you expect when the Robber Barons have the Democrats eating from their hands? You didn't actually believe that Obama was rugged enough to take on the rich.
Then again, this is about fötbah. I do not do fötbah whatsoever. The NFL etc. is a bunch of overpaid, overstuffed jocks who make way way too much money and their managers don't really belong to a city. The managers should be tied to whatever stadium they're currently at. Also, any city that builds a new stadium is the ultimate sucker in this.
Obama took them on as far as the Republicans and current ideology would allow him to.
Democrats eating from the hands of robber barons? I think you'd find if you looked that Republicans eat a lot more from their hands. But Democrats eat some too, it's true. The answer is to take money out of politics. Given that, the fact that all justices who voted for the Citizens United decision were Republican appointees, and all all who voted against it were Democratic appointees, and the fact that Democrats support reform and Republicans oppose it, should tell you all anyone needs to know about who's who in this regard.
