34. I'm realistic about this election too

Mar 2020

And 2016, and every election when I voted for the Democratic candidate, which was every presidential election since my first in 1972.. I thought about Ross Perot because of NAFTA, but time to vote, I was realistic and voted for Bill..

I will vote for Biden, even though I know he will compromise away any hope of ever getting single payer healthcare for all. Who knows? Maybe he’ll surprise me. I hope so..but I will vote for him and proclaim my vote with $, letters, bumper stickers, whatever it takes..

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
