It makes no difference who wins. American democracy died a long time ago. The government is owned by big business. George Bush jr. was never more than a puppet. Obama has followed policies almost identical to those of Bush. So will the next president.
Bernie Sanders will not win the Democrat leadership. The Democrat establishment will see to that. Hillary Clinton is magnificently corrupt, and she is owned by the war industries. All of the Republicans, including Trump, are in the same bag. (And I would bet on Trump to win the presidency.)
None of the candidates - except for Bernie Sanders - has anything that could be called a policy on anything. And Sanders has come a century too late to save the U.S.
To listen to Trump is like reading Mein Kampf. It's exactly the same pitch the naziis used. "Make Germany great again", destroy our racial inferiors who have ruined this country. The mood of the U.S. electorate is exactly what that of the German electorate was in the 1930s. And the big supporters of the mood, in both cases, is big business. Hitler could never have won without the heavy support of German, American (and Canadian and even British) big business. Funny how history books rarely talk about that.
The American destruction of whole societies will continue without even a pause to burp. And, in the process, the U.S. will destroy itself. The very wealthy will continue to get wealthier while everybody else gets poorer.
Canada, for all Ottawa's evasion, is a part of this. We are a U.S. colony as we once were a British colony. Like it or not, Trudeau has committed us to the war in Syria. Our presence there, in any guise, is illegal under international law. But international law has long since died.
And the church, no doubt, will when Canadians start to die, babble about them doing it for God and country. It never has occurred to the churches that you can stand for God or you can stand for patriotism. But you can rarely do both.
Can such understanding of single handed power result in rapport ... or something coming back at yah ... left crossover?
