November Fourth

Left and right I have been hearing complaints about the campaign adds this year, like every other year, and how getting rid of them is the thing people are looking forward to most. We are sick of these adds, gripe about them every year, and swear we hate them and can see right through them.
Do you seriously think these politicians would spend millions on something that did not work? Using the television as a medium of communication is tried and true. We eat that shit up. It has mesmerized us. If we stopped watching then maybe we would not get so annoyed by all the campaign adds, we would have some time to ferret out information on where the candidates stand on issues that are important to us and strike a chord in our lives.

So you can bitch all you want about the ridiculous campaign adds, how much you hate them and how destructive you think they are, but I have no sympathy for you and if you ask me my opinion, I will tell you to throw your television out the nearest window.

I am excited to have taken part in this very historic election. I hope to be proud of my country once again.
