Ok, so I thought about that, and yeah it's a damn shame. Then I wondered if I would want our government run by people selected by the people who vote for American Idol. Then I wondered if I would want our country run by the people selected by the people I know who voted. Then I wondered if I wanted anyone besides me and possibly you to vote. Then I wondered .... and .... wondered and ...... wondered.
Then I decided to take a deep breath, give it up to God and move on......
I never watched it (American Idol) once. But yesterday I did mail in my forms to be an election judge in the upcoming elections. All I can do is all I can do.
Yeah, but keep in mind that more people are eligible to vote for AI than in a presidential election AND they can vote multiple times.
That's not to say that our election turnouts aren't what they could be...we get the government we deserve, I guess, and we've been really bad lately by all indications judging from the present administration...
it is SAD and true! I was thinking hmmm I wonder if the next presidential election was, televised, each week, as they compete we watch them grow, and are on the inside of their descion making process, and we could just call in and vote and not have to regisiter, then maybe more interst and more votes...?

Now......that is SAD.

Sad indeed...But what is even sadder is that 55 million people elected W for a second term!
It breaks everything, heart, soul and mind!!
But not sobriety, thankfully.
I can totally believe that.
