Election Reaction

For starters, let me just tell you I HATE talking about politics to people outside my family. You may think that I think this way because I may be a bigot but, the reality of it all I just really don't like to describe my feelings about a subject that is so taboo to talk about. Well I'll show you a slight glimmer of what I believe is going to happen these next 4 years for the elected president. To start, for anything that may slightly make me annoyed I will use the phrase "redistribute" followed by something I will be "redistributing" for that time being. If you look at that principal right there alone you are immediately shown socialism is present and to be consider an actual democracy based on guidelines set forth by many Political-Science Majors you must be capitalist to be consider democratic. Sorry Canada no soup for you. Although as you can see my ideals seem to be very conservative, which indeed they are, I also have quite liberal ideals in the facades of gay marriage and also stem cell research. Furthermore, I did vote no on proposal two because I think government funding should be put to better things rather then trying to cure certain diseases. No offense to the decease or thus forth coming but, it's social Darwinism and the weak must be taken off this world.

To tie this election into what we have learned the past few weeks about borders is that borders will be cracked, and sometimes they need to be cracked. I think it's great that a minority finally has asserted himself to what can be regarded as the highest power in the world. I wish the greatest of luck to our future President Barrack Obama and hopefully he'll really bring change for the better.

I can understand that you don't like to share your political views with anybody besides your family. At some points in your response I was totally lost and had no idea what you were talking about. I think you did a good job describing the issues you chose.

Match point. I don't blame you for not wanting to talk about politics. I really prefer to keep my opinions to myself if possible, it makes things so much easier to handle when you don't have to discuss why you have your stance while someone else tries to argue to prove that you are "wrong".

I think that no one should have to force you to talk about politics if it is a hot button issue for you. Like Rob said sometimes people don't want to talk with others about their stances on politics. They might not want to explain to others why they think they are right while someone else might tell them that they are wrong and argue about it.
