It is sad these days what we allow to be accepted as the norm. Screaming crying spoiled brats getting whatever they want.
By that I mean the politicians in Washington. I am not going to be part of this norm any longer.
I am a registered Republican with conservative values and I won't be voting this Nov. 4 because I demand better. I demand real candidates who will do what they say and not talk to me in a condescending tone. I demand that we have a better choice than only a choice between the lesser of two evils.
Why do we expect our leaders to reach for the stars when they are only required to stand on the ground? We as a people accept that it's OK for a presidential candidate to look into our faces and lie. It is our own fault. We have only ourselves to blame!
Maybe it will send a message if enough of us don't vote.
