Wake up democracy!

It's time to end the apathy and wake up. We should be writing letters to the editor, posting blogs, donating money, and pushing our officials to wake up and take action!

Welcome to the 2016 election!

It is a scary election year for this country.

The Republican side features front-runners like Donny Trump, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio. As I write this, Jeb Bush (Bush III), John Kasich, and Ben Carson are about to exit stage right, following Fiorini, Christie, Hucklebee, et al.

The Democratic side now features Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.


For me, this year will be a tough election to get behind someone. I was an Obama supporter four and eight years ago. I am generally satisfied with Barack's terms, but not thrilled. The Rethuglicans thwarted him at every turn the last six years, and his accomplishments lag accordingly.




But really, are people serious about Trump? What an idiot this man is. He proposes a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. Aside from the fact that blatant religious discrimination in unconstitutional, how in the hell could this even be possible? I went and looked at my passport to be sure, and there is absolutely no category for 'religion'. Even is he wanted to, there is no practical way to prevent any particular religion from entering out country. And guess what... those ISIS terrorists that he is afraid of will not admit their religion....duhhh.

Anyway, we will stay in touch with the political scene, and try to post more frequently....take it slow.
