You found all the social media stuff for this one. It will be interesting to see how some of this ages. I’m not planning on voting national at all. There are local issues I care about. My rep is more likely to listen to me if they have a chance to run into me at Costco. The Washington ones are never around anyway.

It is more likely to be accountable the lower it gets to the people. But that doesn't mean it necessarily does. They design in opposition optics there too.

But some of the point is that every time democracy was used, it was much more readily infiltrated and overtaken. Possibly, if we get rid of the alien infiltrators, we can have common enough goals to work with a modified version. But a different economic model could negate the need for it. I'm sure really smart people have that figured out. But it only makes sense to at least take a break from these abuse prevalent systems so no one feels compelled to fight about it for at least long enough for memories and passions to fade.

Really good and straight forward ,Karen.

Our fearless leader of Arizona help us see that Trump can not run in Arizona.

You see a convicted felen can not run for office in our state.

I'm so glad she's looking out for her citizens.

So I'm going to write in the name of my favorite Cartel leader.

If I decide to retain my right to place a ballot, it's going to read Donald Trump (write in) regardless of whether it's printed or not.

The rest would be written in NOTA.

But I'm still planning to boycott if I deregister while I still have a valid ID. Still think it's insane!😜

True. Shades of Germany in 1936.

All we need is jackbooted thugs marching down the street.

But we already have that too.

Welcome to the Forth Riech.

We never left the Fourth Reich - it simply relocated.
