Earlier in the week I was struck by the New York Times – Politics (@nytpolitics)  continually tweeting that it was near impossible for Bernie Sanders to catch Hillary Clinton because of the delegate lead she has. Up until then, I though it was pretty much even. Ah, but that’s if you don’t consider “super” delegates. I had forgotten about their existence and it angered me as an example of how our elections and elected officials don’t really seem to be representative of the people. I know we’ve got a lot of differences in this country (wow, understated?), but, whatever your position on a given issue, decisions seem to be made without truly representing the views of those that are supposed to have a say.

Let talk/sing about it.

I sketched what I initially was calling “No Say” into “What Say.” Quick and dirty using the FourTracks Lite app on my old HTC Android phone. (Hear below). Lyrical ideas & chords are also available via downward scroll.
