Political indecisiveness this year is incredible. I have been voting now for almost 18 years, and this is the first year that I just don’t care to vote. Not because I’m undecided about who to vote for, it’s more about me losing faith in the American Political system (?). I was at lunch yesterday with one of my buddies and we were talking about the threat that was made against Obama and, who we were thinking about voting for, and I honestly couldn’t come up with an argument for or against either of them, McCain or Obama. Again, not because I don’t care about who is president, but I honestly think it is irrelevant now. Most of the power that the Office of the President had has been eroded slowly but surely over the last 50 years or so. This is in part due to the incompetent candidates that were elected to the office and part from the American People themselves. By this I mean that the American people have allowed PROFESSIONAL politicians to take over the political system.
I was looking through the MuMMs this morning and there was one that asked about whether he should vote for the green party or vote for one of the established parties… I told the MuMMer that he just needs to vote. It really doesn’t matter how he votes as long as he does. I am a firm believer that if you don’t cast your vote then you have no reason to bitch when shit gets funky. So I know I’m going to vote this year… its just a matter of what am I voting for?
