I'm not optimistic about that, Fantom. After eight years of leftist Obama, the two parties are nominating two who share his ideology.
There doesn't seem to be much hope that Americans will wake up by 2020.
Tonight is a very sad night. I feel America has lost their only hope with Cruz dropping out of the race. I commend him, admire him and he gave it his all. He should be extremely proud of himself. He showed tremendous tenacity, class, and integrity and he never wavered from his core principles. I found it interesting that Trump stated that Cruz was one hell of a competitor and has an amazing future ahead of him. I know I am dreaming, but if Trump does become our president, I hope that he does the right thing and appoints Cruz as a Supreme Court justice.
As for the hope that Americans wake up by 2020...I'm hoping this country makes it that long. Things look very bleak right now.
