I am not huge into politics because many times all it is is bashing the other opponent, and lying to gain the pubic's appeal. I think it's so awesome that we had an LDS (Mormon) man running for president, a lady running for president, a black man running for president (in fact, I think we had 2 at the beginning), and a woman running for vice president. I would love to see someone like any of these become president; however, things matter a whole lot more than them being the minority! Of course, now most of the voters think that we are just down to McCain and Obama with their running mates. Many think that because the other candidates aren't allow in these presidential debates! And if many do know about people like Bob Barr from the Libertarian party, they probably won't vote for them because they think candidates other than republican and democrat don't stand a chance.
I don't know about you, but I am disgusted with both Obama and McCain. With them "throwing darts" at one another, voting on the bailout bill, and several other reasons, I don't like either one of them.
I got to thinking. I am really tempted to just not vote at all because I am so disgusted with this election. However, I want to be able to express my opinion anyways, and it's our job to vote. I also know that a lot of people aren't happy with the republican and democratic choices. I am sure if they knew about Bob Barr and thought that he would have a chance they would vote for him. But he doesn't so I shouldn't vote for him.... but wait... if many think the way that I do... if they were to vote, Bob Barr would have a chance! Unlike the candidates in the republican and democrat parties, he opposed the bailout bill (why give money to those who messed up who likely may do it again and not the people?). http://blog.bobbarr2008.com/2008/10/14/bailout-opponents-have-candidate-in-bob-barr/ . His website is http://blog.bobbarr2008.com/ .
I also know that blogs and email forwardings spread like wildfire. Within just a short span of time, an email can circulate through most of the people on the web! If the media doesn't advertise that republican and democrats aren't the only ones out there, then we should do it! We don't have much time left. You have my permission to copy and paste and blog this or forward it to anyone. In fact, I ask you to do so! The power of the people can make things happen!
