The Anti-vote

Jun 11

Elections are won by men and women chiefly because most people vote against somebody rather than for somebody.
– Franklin P. Adams

Oh, how true this rings of the current election cycle.  The only thing I know for sure is that I am not voting for Obama but I don’t want to vote for McCain either.  Both of these men are sold out to our current political structure (as is almost every other person in politics these days) and I think that change is needed.  The government seems to think that it is it’s job is to provide happiness and prosperity to everyone but, in actuality, it is not.  It is the individual’s responsibility to pursue these things in the bounds set by government to insure life (protection) and liberty (freedom).  I won’t ramble further.  To sum up, I really wish I had a viable candidate to vote for and not just someone to vote against.
