Well stated. Thank you. Too many sheep who do though, unfortunately.
I like the Noot people. I have several friends who are Noot people. ;) LOL.
We don’t need people to tell us what to think, we need principles to define how we analyze candidates. I admire several people who have decided to back candidates that left me scratching my head. I don’t jump onboard with that candidate and I don’t hate the person I admire for making a decision I don’t agree with.
I think we’re lazy, as a culture, when it comes to politics. Quickest soundbyte wins. Endorsements by “popular” people wins. I keep hoping we grow beyond this, but instead we seem to rapidly resort to this behavior more quickly than in the past, each election cycle. Heck it’s not even February yet. :(
