Quite honestly,
That is the most well worded comment I have seen on this forum in quite some time. Not only is the grammar and the diction laid out nicely, it is also a very clear idea.
Now onto the post at large, I agree with this. We need to shake up the two party system by voting for third party individuals. Many people vote one way because their parents vote that way. I personally have grown up past that and I vote in the way that seems to support the constitution. For example, I am a libertarian typically but in this primary, I voted for Ron Paul because he was the only true republican running. All of the rest of them took a neo-con stance in one form or another.
Now I hope that America is smart enough to figure out that a vote for McCain is more war mongering and a vote for either democrat would mean that you are paying all of your hard earned money to the government so the less fortunates of the country can sit back, soak up all your money and pop out babies. I heard one woman actually say she will vote for Hillary because she will give her money on the back end of wellfare. Thats not what our forefathers had in mind for this country.
As a country we have become fat, lazy and stupid. Only in America can people sit around and watch a show called "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?" Most of those questions highlighted on the show any citizen should be able to answer without hesitation. They are questions meant for 5th graders. But it amazes me how stupid the mass populous is as a whole, holding at just about a 4th to 6th grade education. In case you are wondering, thats just barely starting to hit the surface of algebra.
So in closing, when this country finds itself at the bottom of the proverbial bottle in the worlds standing, don't say no one saw it coming. In fact, all the people that saw it coming in the primary elections were criticized and turned into outcast "kooks" that the media laughed at and disregarded. Just remember, that when it hits that fan, all those people who were smart enough to see it coming will also be smart enough to prepare for it and they will be the ones to rebuild this nation. Not the wellfare class.
