Casting My Vote

Debating

I am such an example of a bad American...voting is never the first thing on my mind, nor politics. Though with my faith, profession, position as an Eagle, and personality I should be the first to cast out into the shore. It's not that I consider my vote lost in a sea of obscurity, I consider it very important, I guess I just have some selfish belief that my opinion matters and makes a difference in the end - whether I take an action or not.

Lining myself back to the point...who to vote for? I will vote, I know that, even though part of me considers consciously not voting. I have friends on both sides of the race - who are die hard supporters of their candidate for one reason or another. However, what I find interesting is that I am finding myself in a new category of people - those who don't want to vote for either side. I feel as though my vote is choosing the lesser of two evils to guide us into the next four years. How do you feel comfortable with that thought guiding your decision? Why are we put into a position of choosing evil versus evil? I know some will disagree with me...but that's how I feel. I almost feel that my vote comes down to who do I trust more...and that comes down to the fact that I distrust both sides equally. So who will you vote for? I heard we should write in Mickey Mouse, but you know, I never really trusted him either - look at those ears! Let's vote for Chip and Dale, they always got what they wanted in the end.
