Past US presidential candidates

It's no secret why past presidential candidates such as Ron Paul, Bernie Sanders, Barack Obama, Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard have gained significant support and have stood out among the other candidates. 

It's because they have spoken a sizeable amount of truth, in some cases about taboo subjects such as the counterproductive nature of many US military actions, which is quite shocking when the other candidates tend to be establishment cut-outs: wind-up dolls speaking the same establishment promoting nonsense. Or, if necessary, promising change in the vaguest of terms, while taking money from the same industries they claim they will bring to heel.

I'm not saying that if any of the candidates named above became president they would be able to create meaningful change. The system is stacked against it. 

Clearly 2 of this list have become president and the deep state seems to have defeated both of them and continued on its merry way.

Tens of billions of dollars in profits depends on things staying as they are. Power structures, once established, can be difficult to move. 

But in time everything changes and rapid change is possible if the people demand it. After all, the rulers are few and the people are many and hold the true power in this world.
