I would love to give some
intelligent, insightful, knock your socks off answer. I can't. This question is
next to impossible for me to answer. So you’re going to get a really crap
answer. I’m kinda not sorry.
For starters, I never
talk politics. It, like religion and money, are so subjective, so personal that
I don’t feel I need to throw it out there for public fodder when it is *my* opinion and I don’t really care to have you tell me how wrong I am.
Because I think you’re just as wrong. And no one wins. And feelings just get
hurt and relationships damaged and so I just choose to sit back and keep my
mouth shut.
Secondly, I work here. No
way in hell would I consider running for President. I see how the people in
this town are and no thank you! (That’s not to say they’re all bad – some of
them are delightful. But certainly not all.)
Thirdly, I had a running
joke with a friend in high school that if either of us ran for President, the
other one would bring up all the torrid details of our past lives to ensure we
never got elected. I would hope he would keep his end of the bargain! (Just
because I really, really, really can’t imagine ever wanting to be President.)
And lastly, most
importantly, I am not a well-educated-on-politic-policies person. Sure, there
are some of which I am well-informed and quite passionate about but I am not
wrapped up with every little detail. I can barely stand to face the woes of my
own life. No way would I be in the position to handle them for an entire
country. And having that much responsibility? Ha! I’d go mad. Hey, maybe that’s
what happens each time…..
I just don't do politics.
I had my fill years ago and got pretty burned out.
