Now to address "the day after."
Feel free to delete or unfriend me over my stance, but as most of you who know me personally, I'm not afraid to say what's on my mind. At 34, I'll live with the few left who can deal with my direct approach to life.
In a two party system, America choose the lesser/greater evil (depending on your stance) last night. We overlooked a Third Party, forgot about the environment, and still choose to be ugly to each other THE DAY AFTER.
As soon as some of you all realize that you are going to have to eat turkey next to the self-same people (or see them at the workplace, the church house, or at Christmas), you'll get that bad bone out of your body. If you can't, then God rest you.
Today is NOT a day for gloating for the winners. There is a TON of stuff to ACTUALLY FIX. A win is NOT a win if NOTHING CHANGES. Instead of celebrating by throwing money at a problem (pun intended), let's see if we can spearhead change AHEAD of target dates (or even set them).
I hold our President accountable for a lot and you should as well. I hold our GOVERNMENT accountable as a whole also, but I hold YOU AND I as the architects of our future together the MOST accountable. Don't wait to vote every 4 years and bitch and moan. Get involved AND STAY involved from here on out.
THAT'S how change is made. Vote local and state and understand what's REALLY going on around you before lobbing rhetoric and emotional grenades every 4 years at one another.
That's all.
One love.
