Obviously, we are all sick of all the political propaganda spewed across our news feeds. I honestly think I might forgo social media until after November 8 because one more presidential meme and my head might explode. However, this is not what bothers me the most. What bothers me is every person trying to force me to jump ship because of the candidate who is running on my political party's ticket. I AM NOT MY CANDIDATE.
Let me just preface this article by stating the obvious, our candidates suck as human beings, we all know this. But choosing the president is not about our personal feelings about Donald Trump's harassment of women or Hilary Clinton's email dumping extravaganza. I am not voting for Trump or Clinton because I want to be friends with them or think I'm going to have a personal relationship with them. And in fact, I don't want to know either of them on a personal level. I am going to vote for the candidate who runs on the platform of what my political party choice believes in.

Basically what I am trying to say is stop trying to convince me not to vote for the candidate who represents my thoughts on abortion, planned parenthood, gun control, immigration, foreign policy, military spending, economic issues, and so on because you have a personal vendetta against who the candidates are as a person. News flash, it doesn't matter. Why would I completely forgo my morals and ideology, the reason why I am registered as a *insert political party here* voter because my candidate may not have the best personal track record?
So, a message to everyone spewing personal information political propaganda on the current presidential candidates, take a step back and remember why we are actually voting for a *republican*, *democrat*, *green*, or *independent* party candidate it the first place! If you have trouble sorting throughout all the muck you're reading in social media about the candidates here's my recommendation, check out isidewith.com and figure out which candidate, on the POLITICAL, not PERSONAL, level is supporting your beliefs, then choose who to support.
Now, thank you and goodbye political garbage until post-November 8.
