How can you not see this?
In case you do see this, wouldn't you agree that anyone who is NOT a politician will be a breathe of fresh air?

Look at how much American Corporations spend to get these guys elected. They buy ads, pay for marketing, and a lot more to make sure people vote for the politicians the corporations approve of. So don't blame the politicians. Look in a mirror to see the culprits.
If you think Trump is going to a new brush. Explain how he gets anything done with all the Senators and Congressmen scared about getting enough money to stand for election next time.
Funding is like a gun, big business can choose to shoot, or choose not to. Either way, the politicians jump when told.
The UK recently had a huge opportunity to put the fear of god into the politicians by voting UKIP. Not enough did.
So if you want change, vote for it. Not going for anyone with 7 figure budgets in their election pots, even if it's their own money, they won't throw it away to make others richer.
