I agree with you. I find myself less tha...BeFrank,<br /><br />I agree with you. I find myself less than inspired by the rhetoric. And I agree that this campaign feels very fake. <br /><br />You would think that we could come up with better candidates and more reasonable discourse.<br /><br />IMO, part of the problem is that as a nation we seem to be moving towards sound bites as a source of information. That doesn't provide much in the way of substantive commentary or information. It is pretty thin to say the least.<br /><br />I am a big advocate for pushing more reading and more emphasis on teaching critical reasoning and logical thought in the schools.Jack Steinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625864271071630940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012911.post-1097823954232595752004-10-15T00:05:00.000-07:002004-10-15T00:05:00.000-07:00Its funny watching both countries choose the lesse...Its funny watching both countries choose the lesser of 2 evils to lead them. Both countries have very different ways of electing governments and the "fanfare" that leads up to it is also very different. Unfortunately for me my lesser of 2 evils didn't get elected and we are stuck with the dictator for another 3 years *sigh*. After studying politics in both Australia and USA, all i can say to my friends in the USA is to make sure you vote.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15400006028099229571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012911.post-1097804873640412902004-10-14T18:47:00.000-07:002004-10-14T18:47:00.000-07:00I don't like MONDAYS either!

I still don't...I hate both presidential candidates. I still don't know which one I can vote for and not hate myself in the morning. It's so much easier deciding which movie to NetFlix next, than it is trying to choose between the lesser of two evils. What helps is knowing that no matter who I vote for, Kerry will win California, so it doesn't really matter which way I go. (And for you assertive types out there, don't bother emailing me with suggestions.) I'm glad I'm not in a swing state.<br /><br />Evolution is a slow process. Maybe over the course of time the slacker gene will breed out as the conscientious people find more success in life. I'd like to hope so, anyway.<br /><br />Is it November 3rd yet?dkgoodmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06731373688572121714noreply@blogger.com
