I wouldn't say a revolution. But I think the middle class, who make up the majority of the votes, are going to finally get sick of those in Washington D.C. and start a third party. It is both democrats and republicans that just don't seem to get it. We are watching them sell off our country to the highest bidder. We watch gas prices increase while congress does nothing but wag their fingers at oil big wigs. When it boils down to it, congress and the president (no matter who it is) won't pass laws that will hurt the company's that give them their campaign money. Until the middle class wakes up, smells the coffee and realizes that we need representatives in our government, it will only get worse.

America is a very sick nation. All kinds of hatred, racial

& ethnic; fabrications to gain money, power and influence over the world and the world's assets and twisted laws to satisfy the ruling party's desires permeate in the US. If we go by the definition of revolution "A revolution is a relatively sudden, and absolutely drastic change (a "complete turn-around"). This may be a change in the social or political institutions over a relatively short period of time, or a major change in its culture or economy.", then the US is ready for one.

Yes but not for a long, long, time. There is not yet enough misery and desparation to fuel it. If NEOCONS like Grover Norqist have their way, with no social safety net and a population of disenfranchized serfs, eventually it WILL happen. You need 3 things for a revolutoin, wooden headed leadership, some kind of national catastrophy and a complete disconnect between the ruling class and its citizens. We seem to be headed there.

Neither in the US nor in other capitalist countries will the worldwide economical dictatorship let changes or even a revolution happen.

Your dam right yes! and if our own citizen's don,t get off there a$$, some country like china might do it in some sneaky way you might not consider! Organize a united militia with one common goal for all being in control of your own money and life not what we have now! Its your constitutional right!

No, we have to have passion and conviction to start a revolution. Americans as a whole are just to cavalier and imprudent.
