Yes We Can, Pt. 2 - Mostly For…

I must concede that blogging anything of substances by one’s self is terribly difficult.  The rigors of the physical world on my time and space are too numerous to account for, and together they diminish the capacity for which I have to blog.  Nevertheless I must carry on such a torch when the realm of being allows.

 It’s not that McCain is a boogie man, but, ideologically, many conceptual tendencies of his are inept at best, whether this is by a fault of his own or that of his advisers, it’s no way to lead a country.  This brings up a pertinent point many Americans leave by the way-side when they stand before the all-measurable ballot.

When casting votes, Americans mark the candidate to which they most relate to either emotionally, physically, culturally, or religiously.  Many Americans forget that that it is none of these ‘things’ which end up affecting their daily life, rather it is the sum measure of a man’s ideological stance(s) that define the direction of this country.  While thought processes may be affected by a man’s emotional, physical, cultural, or religious stances the sum measure is only the resultant policy.  It should be, if a citizen agrees with the plurality of the ideological sentiments of a certain candidate then they should cast their singular vote for that candidate they most agree with, not who they would “like to have a beer with.”

This brings me to the “mostly for…” proposition.  There is without a doubt a majority of Americans who do not agree entirely with the chosen candidates of the Democratic, Republican, or some other extraneous political party, yet by some decree of illogical behaviour they will vote for that candidate no matter the consequences (ahem…).  In November I will not vote along party lines, I will not vote along religious lines, or along culture definitions.  I will cast my vote solely with the candidate who best purports the virtues of the law (understood) and specifically the Constitution (written), and such a candidate who has made decisions with the best interest of the American People in forethought.

That candidate is not John McCain.  I would ask that those of you who read this, take care in how you exercises the sovereign continuing right of the country to exist by your vote.
