As I said, I have no hidden agenda. Hell, if both of those liberal dung heaps would be hit by a train tomorrow, I'd be just as happy then as I am today. In other words...I wouldn't give a shit. I don't believe in carte blanche gubmint hand outs and that is at the core of Liberal thinking and it usually costs hard working americans a lot of money to fund all the special programs that are created as a result. If people have a sound mind and able body then they should be working their fingers to the bone just like the early immigrants to this country did, NOT sitting in some gubmint program office looking for a perpetual hand out. So I guess that is my motive if there really is one. I don't want a damn liberal president. I don't want touchy feely. I don't give a crap about those who aren't willing to first help themselves before asking someone else for help and I see that crap every day.

I digress...my point is that our election system is flawed..badly. The popular vote..no matter who it is for, should be the sole deciding factor in who is elected. The idea that I cast my vote for an electoral college and not actually for the candidate of my choice, is absurd. We have grown beyond the fears of the founding fathers. Today's electorate is mostly educated, not ignorant and too dumb to be able to cast the vote that they think will best bennifit them. If people don't show up to vote then they have no right to bitch about who is elected..it's that simple. We need some serious election reform in this country or we are doomed as a democracy since each side will continue to up the ante until the cost to the average american becomes too great.
