There was a time at the local
level, that all elections were non-partisan, political parties were not included
at all, and quite frankly not needed. We have seen that creep away quickly over
the last 15 years, and we need to go back to that.
Let’s take it a step further and
suggest that we do that at more national levels of politics as well because
party affiliations have simply divided people into three tribe, with two of the
tribes on the verge of civil war and the third (really mixed smaller tribes)
wondering what the heck is going?!
Between 1861 to 1865 we have had
tribes fighting, and it led to a huge number of deaths, and we still have not
reconciled that fight it seems. There
are still actual children of soldiers from that fight still alive today,
collecting VA benefits.
Anyway, I digress, so let me put
it in simple terms. I am tired of political parties going at each other in the
way we are seeing now, nothing is getting accomplished, and remember the
parties (tribes) are not the same now as they were after 1865, that is a simple
fact.
People are voting the party without
considering the candidate for that party, and a lot of these candidates are
coming up short. Can you also imagine the money we could save without primary
elections? How much good could be done with those billions of dollars in saving?!
Slavery does exist still, both
literal, and in this case figuratively. Some of you are slaves to a political
system that you do not even understand, really care about (you are just
programmed to care), and it certainly does not care about you. Blind loyalty
means the blind are leading the blind.
Notice how I did not mention
political party names? I know each group is going to read this the way they see
fit and understand, and that is ok because that means you have stopped posting
your rhetoric on the internet for a couple of minutes to think.
