Presidential Race

This is Matt (you may also know me as Jessi's husband), and this is my first entry on this blog. It is not about us or what we have been up to but just about some stuff that I have been thinking about, so if you will indulge me for a moment I am going to spray some thoughts and maybe something will stick. I have been thinking about the much-anticipated presidential race that is going on right now in this fair country of ours, and I have tried my best to inform myself about all of the candidates and their stances on most of the major issues. I really want to love one of the candidates so much that I put one of their signs in my front yard, but I have not had that revelation...until today. I have always been a Ralph Nader fan, but now I am coming out and endorsing him as my presidential candidate. I know he isn't going to win, probably not even close, but I am definately voting for him. It really bothers me that we can have 31 different flavors of ice cream, 20 different kinds of Coke, and 64 colors of crayons to choose from, but only 2 presidential candidates. I am sure there are a few people out there who really think that McCain or Obama is their choice because they have the same values as them, maybe so. But Neither of them come close to what I believe in, so why are they the only "real" choices? I hate the fact that I am choosing the leader of my country based on the fact that, "they were the lesser or two evils." I don't want that to be my president, I want my president to be someone who believes in what I believe in. I want there to be as many quality choices for president as there are quality choices for ice cream. I don't want people to either be republican or democrat. Both parties are crooked and the only thing they care about is control, and they are doing it for their party, not for the country. Vote Nader. (This statement does not necessarily represent those of O-Town, or their sponsors. Just Matt) Thank you for listening to my rant, god bless you.
