Election volatility, voters searching for real representation.

 ELECTIONS ARE SYMPTOM OF CHANGING WORLD

WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON

The election in New York city has many bewildered, how can a openly socialist candidate win this election? Of course, many have still not understood why Donald Trump has been able to win 2 elections for president. Much of this is not so much the allure of the candidate, but the rejection of the existing power structure that is now the being questioned, no only here but around the world. 

In fact, Obama was the pictured by many as a outsider candidate, but soon proved to have the same policies, especially in foreign policy, as the rest. Trump immediately went to the front against a bunch of traditional candidates because he was an outsider, then the outrage and universal opposition of the power structure, media, politicians and experts, just added to that outsider image. The reality is many people, and with 75% of the people under 30 voting for Mamdani, are rejecting the traditional candidates. They are being rejected because most believe they will not change course from the existing policy. A policy that in this country has resulted in a $38 Trillion in debt, and growing, a foreign policy of death and destruction that has not positively effective their lives and the perceived reality that none of them represent them once elected. 

In Europe the leaders of the the UK, France and Germany are under 25% approval  and they are openly attempting to disqualify any opposition candidate or party. There will be huge changes coming to the Eurozone one way or another. 

We see the same thing in central Africa, were traditional candidates are being replaced by those that are shedding themselves of the last remnants of colonialism and are being threatened from outside powers.

There is a strong desire for a change of direction and it is always dangerous because that direction may also not be exactly what people desire. It is obvious that the world order that existed since WW2 is coming to an end. The leading nations of that order are weighed down with massive debts and a loss of direction, other than attempting to keep the whole thing going a little longer. This debt and failure to address issues at home are now becoming evident everywhere. It will require new policies and new thinking, something that has not as yet become solidified into real policy.
