I did not vote today. There are two reasons.... one being that both candidates suck ass, and two being that cats are not allowed to vote. So I guess I should really have no opinion on the matter altogether, but I do. And I will share it with you all. I feel that as an American, it is nice (in theory) that each dividual has the right to have a say in who their leader is. That being said and knowing how many Americans do actually vote, why are there so few choices for the position of president? There are millions and millions of people in the United States of America.... and collectively they can only present TWO (sometimes three) individuals to choose from? Something is wrong with this math. It does not make sense mathematically. So either the laws of math are non-existant in the election process... an idea that scares me given the ballot counting process probably follows suit. Or, the job of president is a really shitty job. How come we can get hundreds of thousands of moronic idiots to try out for and vie for the title of American Idol, yet we can only get two to vie for the position of American President? And when both candidates suck, we are told to vote for the lesser of two evils. Yeah, as if that makes a difference. Evil is evil. I'm glad to be a cat... I just vote for longer naps and more tuna.

Dear Nuno -
YOU should be thrilled with the outcome of the election! This is a big victory! I was on the edge of my seat all evening. This is democracy in action. Dude, a black cat won! You should be doing the happy dance!!

OK, I won't get into a political debate with ANYONE... everyone is too emotional on the subject matter and we all have to respect each other's rights to have different opinions and not attack others whose opinions differ from our own. All I can say is that I do not trust the man who has just been elected to be our leader. I do not trust that his intentions are wholly for the benefit of this country - I believe his true allegiance is elsewhere and he has some questionable connections. I also believe he has alterior motives that are yet to be uncovered or realized my the general public. I'm sure there are millions of theories and feelings on both of the candidates. These are only a few of mine.
