The State of the Political Race...

I was talking with some peers of mine today, and I discovered something absolutely appalling!
I must first say that I do understand that certain subjects shouldn't come up in everyday conversations, namely religion and politics...but I couldn't help myself, and I began discussing the latter.
When I asked who they were going to vote for, or who they support, many simply replied that they want a Democrat in office...when I asked them if they knew which Democrats were still running, only a handful knew. For those that didn't know, I told them: Barrack Obama, and Hillary Clinton.
After telling them, I asked again who they supported. A few dropped out of the conversation because they simply did not care. This is very sad to me, mostly because the main reason that Bush was elected was because people weren't informed, they didn't care, and therefore didn't bother to vote. Not to say that I hold too much faith in the voting system. I'm on the fence with it, actually...half of me want to believe that I have a say in my government, but the other is sick and tired of being fucked right up the ass, and doesn't care anymore. It also doesn't help that I recently watched a press conference where a member of Bush's cabinet admitted that it was possible to fix an election. BUT, I digress...
For the few that stayed in the conversation, some said one, others said the other. I'd like to break this down a little.
For those who said Obama: Majority didn't even know what his policies were...how can you have an opinion if you don't know?! I am going to let the VERY few others who actually knew what he was about slide...but back to those who didn't! It seemed to me that they simply wanted him in office because he was a black man. I will admit that he does have some good policies...but he is far too concerned with national security, rather than personal and civil liberty. Anyway...I am sick of people being so shallow with the subject! They think that just because he is black, it will create change if elected...NOT TRUE! Ethnicity has nothing to do with policy or conduct...it's been thousands of years people...race means NOTHING! A good example is a white man with a 'black mentality'...more popularly known as wiggers...color doesn't make the man! Anyway, I was appalled to learn that people were naive enough to think that just because he is black, that he will create change...If you take a deeper look at his policies...he doesn't really want to change much of anything...besides taxes...
On to Hillary Clinton...I won't summarize what my peers said about her, but it was very similar...most of the supporters were female, and it seemed they only wanted her in office because she was...female...AGAIN, sex doesn't create change...policies do! The shallow, naive stupidity of this belief astounds me!
Here is what I think of Ms. Clinton: She....is....a...NAZI! She is so concerned with national security that she has completely forgotten about our civil liberties...she wants to continue the cycle that was set in motion over 60 years ago where the government's hands just keep getting deeper and deeper into our asses...
First of all...we are all under the impression that we need to protect ourselves...this isn't true...no one is coming to get us...they really aren't! Oh, and if you still think that 9/11 was committed by fundamentalists from the Middle East...GROW UP, stop listening to everything Big Brother tells you, and research it for yourself! A good place to start would be www.zeitgeistmovie.com! Our government did it...it's true! Our government has done if at least three other times...think about it...wasn't it a little convienient for Bush? It was an excuse to go to war...
Anyway, Hillary is a neo-nazi if I ever saw one...She cares about capitalism more than human rights...it's very sad.
What I am really trying to say here, is that every candidate has forgotten what America is really about...for the last 60 years people in power have been trying to turn the 'greatest country in the world' into the 'greatest commercial company in the world'. And I am fucking sick of it...and what is worse is that no one cares...
You need to realize that if we don't take a stand and draw a line in the sand we will wake up one day with computer chips embedded in our bodies, and we won't have the right to take a shit without permission.
But...there is hope...and unfortunately even this small sense of hope isn't 100% awesome...and this glimmer of hope is fading fast, as no one is willing to support it....
Ron Paul, ladies and gentlemen, is a Republican...which I know, is strike one...he also is pro-life...strike two...but that's it...no more strikes can be found by me...every other candidate I've researched has an average of 5 strikes...out of 3...
Ron Paul wants to give us our liberties back, and take the government's hand out of our asses...he also wants to reform the EVIL banking cartels that literally run our country top to bottom...and most importantly...he want to get rid of the IRS, which is the most fucked up, evil company the world has EVER seen.
I am asking your help to get this man elected...and not because he's paying me to say this, but because I truly believe in him...and his is the first candidate I've ever truly supported in my entire life. In the past it's always been a choice between the best of two evils...this man isn't evil! If nothing else, just research him...read his policies...get involved before this democracy swirls into a dictatorship.
Most importantly...VOTE!!!! Even I think that it doesn't count anymore...but I at least still have hope that it might!
If we don't mobilize and take our country back, then the corporations and evil men with money will completely take us over...and then I'll have to move to the Congo to get away from every sort of politics.
I am on my knees begging you to get involved with your country...because believe it or not...if we elect either Barrack or Hillary...this country is going to continue to spiral out of control...and trust me...there IS a point of no return...and it is VERY, VERY close!
Start caring, or move to a country which isn't in a critical point in it's history!
If you aren't helping...you're hurting!
