The alternative for most Cities {and Counties}

is Big City] Political "Machine" Politics where
'The Elected' are just Puppets of their powerful
Party Boss 'Masters'.

When one thinks of [Big City] Political "Machine"
Politics the City of Chicago usually comes to mind.

NOTE - That Rod Blagojevich the Impeached

Point-of-Fact - Prez Obama made his political
'bones' in Chicago and is a creature of the Corrupt
Chicago Political "Machine" that is used to
Forcing IT's Political Will on the People as a
One Party [Totalitarian] System that Politically
and Economically Enslaves the Daily Lives of
the Voters and Tax Payers of a City which the
"Machine" Controls Totally.

Now that Prez Obama and The ObamaTarians©
have Control of the White House THEY 'collectively'
are Forcing THEIR Political Will on the American
People as a One Party [Totalitarian] System that
Politically and Economically Enslaves the Daily
Lives of All American Voters and US Tax Payers
of this Nation which the Obama "Machine" Hopes
to Control Totally. {Prez Obama Promised Change}
