Thanks for echoing my feelings: “I will come out on the liberal side of this argument - but that does not mean there is not a lot on the liberal platform that I don’t agree with. And I suppose, in many cases, we’re all holding our noses as we fill in the forms. I’m tired of that, by the way. I would love to vote one day for someone I really believe in - but that’s going to require a complete overhaul of our two party system, the removal of the electoral college, term limits for every office, a true popular vote primary system and the removal of money from the equation.”….
I am heading to vote as I type these lines with a bitter taste in my mouth as I don’t feel represented, I don’t feel my voice is heard and yet, I am to vote.
Well said, you articulate well. Me not so much. I am reading in reverse. I am not a Republicrat. I am fiercely independent or Libertarian. (ps this is rocknrollpimp) I said 38 times I would read your blog. And thanks for sharing
I too have a lot of fear these days. I find it difficult to believe that this is where we are as a country, that our democracy is at risk, that our rights and freedoms are being stripped away. Prayers for a big win next Tuesday and that we as a country manage the post election chaos with dignity and clarity.
To have this layer hovering over u (Sean) while coping with very real and personal vulnerabilities must amplify everything in painful ways. Tender hugs. Go Kamala!
