When I was a kid my dad used to walk around the house saying, "Beat the system, kids! Beat the system!" It took me fifty years to realize how much he really meant that. He used to say something else that I find helpful these days: "Don't let the bastards get your down." (Thanks Daddy! I'm trying...💙)

Marianne...some (hopefully) constructive criticism. You talk too often in feel good vague broad terms. As a serious politician you need to be more specific and focus on actual policy positions you would enact or block if in power.

Maybe he was talking about 21? Card counting? Did he go to Vegas much?

How are you beating the system running as a Democrat? You will have to work with the same Democrats who have legislated for decades. You will not change their minds. If you were about beating the system you would run as an Independent. You are there for the illusion of choice.

How will RFK or Marianne Williamson change anything as Democrats? They will be confronted by the same old Democrat structure and decades of elected leaders who have failed our nation? If they ran as Independents I could respect them. They are not to keep Democrats in power.

What an odd tribute on Father's Day. "Beat the system" usually means "cheat the system." I think you've done that pretty well by peddling New Age nonsense. Yes, love is good. What else do you really have to say?
