That Time Again...

Ahh, the presidential election is almost upon us again. You know, I seem to recall a time when people voted for someone that they actually WANTED in the office. If nothing else, I do remember studying about such people way back in my history and poli sci classes. Now, though...well, now it just seems like everybody just votes for whichever dipshit, partisan career politican they think will fuck up the least.

There's something wrong with that, at least in my opinion. So, I will espouse the same stance I have for years: Don't vote. You can bitch and whine about how it's the duty of every citizen to vote, but it's also the right of every citizen to be represented by something MORE than just the lesser of two evils. And maybe, just maybe, if voter turnout can be reduced to a single-digit number, the career politicians will realize that the people want something a little more and a little better for themselves.
