I agree! And add an addenda. Those who do vote will blame whoever is voted in for the downfall of anythiing, Humanity,world crisis, etc, Wars and starvation preceded the founding of the USA, but Americans think we are the cause off an immoral world. All others countries are perfect? Give me a break. PR PR

I must echo T.S Poetry's comment in this instance Gershon - well penned. Did you notice I answered ML Kiser on your comment to her about that wonderful poem on dogs, proves that packing, working and poetry takes its toll! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Thanks for the endorsement of this little ditty, M.L. Here's to our two-party system, i.e., a party in the morning and a party in the evening. LOL. Thanks, Gershon

Truth, an inconvenience...now here we can vote up to a month before election day and still the turnouts are less than 40 percent.

Ha, ha! When they make election day a national holiday, nobody'll vote. Everybody will be at the beach, the football game, or in bed. Smiles, Gershon

Ha, ha! I guess that's why we have a 'devil-may-care' President in the White House! LOL. Wonder what we'll get in 2020. (Cringe!) Thanks for the sweet analogy. ~ Wink, wink, Gershon

Well said Gershon. It seems now a days when we vote we have a choice between the worst and the lesser of two evils. Good job here. God less, JB

We can always move to a Communist country and never vote. Americans do not know how good it is to live here. Grousing is a national past time! PR

Last Presidential election sure was a choice between two evils. What awaits us may even be worse! Oh, well. All part of God's mysterious plan... :) gw (Soup mail, please)
