aggravatedYou know, the more and more I watch the news on television the more and more I become angered by those who are in charge of our country. Who are these people and why are they making decisions about who I can marry and how my money gets spent? They tax my pay check, but never once have I gotten a telephone call from Mr. Bush asking me if I is okay for him to spend and spend and spend until our country is dug so deep in debt that the light of day is no longer visible. I did not elect these people and though some of you who are receiving this may have... how many of you did so because you thought you were voting for the lesser of two evils? How many of you realized that there are more than just two presidential candidates out there?
Well guess what! There are!
So, why don't we hear about these other candidates? Because they are not strong enough or financially powerful enough in a way to rival the Republicans or the Democrats.
Please people, educate yourselves. There are not only two choices! There are several more!
Mr. Obama is calling for change.
I'll say we need a change. It's time to think outside of the box. We need to take a stand against the strong hold the republicans and the democrats have over this country and send a message to those on capitol hill and let them know that we do want a change.
As Americans we have the freedom to make choices. How about, instead of just voting for someone from the choices presented on television and the radio, this year, we vote for the BEST person for the job and not the person who kinda/sorta meets the qualifications.
Imagine yourself an employer and you had to hire a person to fill a position within your company. Normally, you would accept SEVERAL applications then go through a process of elimination based on presented qualifications, interviews, then you would make your choice of the best possible person to fill that position. It is kind of easy to narrow it down to the best person because you had the opportunity to review several different applicants, interview them, then weigh their qualifications as well as ability to do the job. Now, imagine the same process, but you are only permitted to choose your future employee from the two applications on the top of the pile. By only seeing two applications you may possibly be over looking the best possible person for the job merely because their application was at the bottom of the stack and not readily visible.
Now, do not think I am telling anyone how to vote, I am not. I just want for the message to get across that we are not limited to just two choices.
I am including a web page link to the List of 2008 Presidential Candidates. If you scroll down the pages a little bit you will find a complete list of all of the candidates for the presidency and after reviewing their stance on the issues, I can tell you that I will not be voting for Obama or McCain.
