That's it. I'm finished!
Disclaimer: This will make some, if not many, of you angry and the simple fact is that I don't care. I encourage you to step outside of your comfort zone and read further. This is how we grow. Listening to opposing ideas is never a bad thing. It helps you see things from all points of view and this is mine. If you don't like it, I will politely direct you to the little red "X" in the upper right hand corner of your screen. Thank you for your consideration.
I haven't even started this and you are having a gaggle of questions. I, on the other hand, am having an anueryism about this election childish yelling match closely resembling that of two pidgins squawking at each other.
I do my best to stay in the political loop and try to make educated decisions as to how to use my ever so precious vote. The two candidates that I have before me are not giving me much to look forward to however. And before you go on this rant about how there are more than two options, let me ask you something. Are they really much better? No. They aren't. This entire election is like having a choice between a salted prune and a stale Cheeto on a plate and told you must eat one. (Let me just run and grab the bleach).
I am a registered independent because frankly, both parties are entirely too self-absorbed in their drama and I really don't need to be connected to that. I have enough of my own problems to worry about without a party asking me to rally behind their cause, (and give them more money that they don't need).
Let's start with dear old Hillary Clinton. To be completely honest I cannot see her being a very transparent leader. Sure she has some plans in place. But will she follow them? How does she honestly plan on following up on her oaths of office if she can't even honestly follow up with the families of the men killed in Benghazi? (Oh wait...). For those of my friends who are Clinton supporters, you've come this far so might as well wait until the juicy bits about Trump. After all you're the ones who seem to focus on that so well.
Which brings us to the man who will "Make America Great Again!" No. Just. Stop. Why are you even running for President? I wouldn't trust you with nuclear arms if you were the last Cheeto man on the planet. Though at that point I might ask you to put me out of my misery. While the Democratic party hit a low blow on that video, the fact remains you still said those things. If my parents heard me talk about women like that I would have gotten a solid whooping and more. "It was 11-..." save it bud. I don't care how long ago it was, the fact remains you still said it and unless you have gotten a good knock in the head, I doubt you have changed much. What kind of example is that setting for the young men in this country.
Both of you are terrible examples of decent human beings. Sure nobody is perfect and I don't expect you to be. But I also expect you to be honest about men's lives and why they were lost and not talk so nonchalantly about groping women. I am more done with you two than I am with my biology class. At least I can get factual information out of that class without constant anxiety surrounding if I have to fact check or not.
To those towing the party line and already furiously typing out a response on your computer, please take a minute to appreciate how awesome broken our political system is.
