The problem with politics. I’ll start by saying I hate politics more than anything on earth.  I despise a topic that can get people blood-red fighting mad, when they in fact know very little about it.  You may ask, if you hate it so much, then why is it part of your blog title?  Well, when I do blog about politics, which is extremely rare, I don’t force my opinions on readers.  I don’t typically blog on topics that can start an uproar.  You’ll never see a one-sided argument regarding politics from me.  Ever.

I will tell you my problem with the subject, though.  No one really knows what they are voting for.  No one.  Sure, we can see the portrayed side of the black guy, and the portrayed side of the white guy running, but we don’t know their thoughts, their intentions.  To me, buying into their speeches is a mild form of brainwashing.  Anyone with enough charisma can convince the world of anything.  I am not saying I fear that a dictator will rise up, and yes, I understand the structure of the U.S. Government.  My main point is that I don’t know the person that I would be voting for.  Yes, that’s right, I don’t vote.  I’ve been called idiot numerous times for it, but I just don’t know these candidates.  I’m not going to vote for a party, because that’s just ludicrous.  Another main problem is how it’s such a “once every four year” thing.  What I mean by that is, when the election year comes around, all these people come around and get so engrossed, but the years in between, have zero interest.

I don’t look down on people that vote, that’s not my point.  The U.S. should proclaim itself as an aristocracy, because when it boils down to it, that’s what we really are, behind all the curtains.  The election is so controlled, more than probably 90% of people realize.  All these 18 – 24 year old zealots that have taken a couple of politics classes, with more fervor than a Catholic Priest, all of a sudden think they are the world’s expert on political affairs.  Don’t get me wrong, not saying I’m an expert.  I don’t know much about it, and don’t want to.  One prime example of how misleaded people are is the whole Palin incident.  When she was chosen for McCain’s running mate, he creeped ahead in polls.  It’s simply because all the women that are upset that Hillary didn’t get in are voting for McCain.  See, this is why I don’t vote.  My point is, if you have an opinion, great.  Go vote, go do your thing.  Don’t pretend to be a future president.  The more you open your mouth, the bigger of an idiot you look like.
