In a few days the election for President of The United States will be history. I knew from the beginning it would be the nastiest, most hateful race I would ever see. A New York businessman trying to upset an over one hundred year establishment of special interest groups, bigotry and corruption from both the Republican and Democrat sides, AND a former First Lady and Senator from New York who wants to make history as the first female president of the United States. I've seen all the misleading, disgusting, and hateful ads on the internet and television from both campaigns. My greatest sadness in this is knowing there are many people who will base their vote on all the propaganda they see on these sites instead of doing research and learning the TRUE FACTS. Most people in the US will vote based on emotional issues, just like when they buy a new home or a car, or a new pair of jeans. Very Sad. This is why all the advertisements are focused on making you feel an emotion. Think about that. 

My question's to you are? Will you vote on a person's personality or lack there of? Will you not vote for someone because they caught the flu from shaking too many hands and refused to admit they needed to take a break for fear of looking weak, or because they made insensitive comments about women or the disabled? We've all done this at some time in our lives. Get over all this crap and look at the big picture.

In my part, I have grown weary of the seesaw, back and forth, of Republican's and Democrat's, back and forth, the same old policies, the same old scenaningans, the same old politician's lining their pockets from special interest groups. No one ever caring about the people. The people who get up every morning and get to work at 8am or after. The people who work night shifts to make sure we get excellent medical care, the policemen/women, the firefighters, the emergency responder's. We take for granted all of this. The daycare worker's who care for our children while parent's work all day, sometimes more than one job to make ends meet. The Clergy who try to counsel their flock when they are down. Somebody needs to start caring about the people.

We are blessed beyond our own recognition here in the United States. We are rich in money, in food, clothing, housing, yet we are poor in education of real life and what is before us in the future. We are poor in that we don't understand how taxation of our properties, administration of our healthcare and protection of our land for agriculture is so important. The protection of our elderly, the children and those who cannot care for themselves because of disability's.  We need leadership at the top of our country who will take time to investigate all of this and appoint expert's (who will not be bought) to manage it. WE NEED FOCUS ON REAL ISSUES. These are JUST A FEW BASIC, YET EXTREMELY important issues we all need to learn more about. 

Anyway, these are my thought's and feeling's as we approach the biggest decision our country has ever made on November 8, 2016. I hope you've done your homework and can vote on more than just a feeling.
