So, here in the US, as everyone knows and certainly doesn't need me to tell them, it's the eve of Election Day. We've all read the polls, and everyone has their opinions. I'm not here to give my opinion on the candidates; the Democrats would call me Republican, and the Republicans would call me Democrat. Also, I'm Canadian by birth, and not quite American yet, so therefore, I'm unable to vote anyway.
I do have an opinion on the two-party system; it is so bi-partisan that it has divided the country, maybe even North America. Everyone is either red or blue, conservative or liberal, and the one side disagrees with the other side on everything; there is no common ground. THIS is the aspect of politics that I dislike. Both sides blame the other for the bi-partisanism, but neither side wants to fix it. So if someone goes to the polls and votes straight Democrat or straight Republican, and by that, misses the RIGHT CANDIDATE, that destroys the system. So be sure and KNOW your candidates before you vote, and not their party.
On that note, let me leave you with MY perfect candidate, if I was able to vote....
