Are you really that naive as to expect change under the next democrat|republican administrations?

You've confused hope with naivety, where there is none.

Election time is the best time for reform, i.e. where the democratic process has the most influence.

Wasn't Obama the 'hope' candidate?

I agree that hope is better than despair but hope seems to be a bit of a tarnished word after the last 4+ years.

And this time around, let's hope we are a bit more curious about the "change" we are voting for.

Voting for a very small set of preselected candidates, endorsed by either wing of the elite party and mass media has zero chance of changing anything.
