So tell me, you feel GOOD about voting for Romney? Seriously? You would WANT him to be president of the USA?
Well, you are entitled to your opinion, just as I am entitled to mine.
Quite frankly, I have come to the conclusion that voting FOR someone you really don't want in office is just perpetrating a fraud of what the voting process should be all about. It should be about CHOICE. YOUR choice about what you really WANT. And I just simply voted for who I really want to be in that office. Not voting against some other guy. Not voting for who I THINK will win. I voted for who I REALLY want to win. It was an honest vote.
No, I don't believe for an instant that Ron Paul will really win. But then again, perhaps it is time to send a message to this 2 party farce we have to deal with every election that we just want BETTER choices than what they choose to dangle in front of us each election. By buying into the pap that says unless you do what they say (vote for who THEY choose for you), then you are wasting your vote, all you are really doing is tugging the chains more tightly around yourself that binds you to their bidding.
Quite frankly, I choose to take a stand contrary to their herding of the populace.
And if that sort of attitude helps to put Obama back in office, then so be it. The Republicans threw away an opportunity by their own poor choice by not offering us someone that the majority of the voting public could stomach voting for. Again........
This is the first time I have actually feel GOOD about my vote for the president of the USA, even though it is most certainly a futile gesture.
