So politics seem to be on everybody’s minds lately. I keep up with what’s going on and stuff, but I am no political junky. I hate discussing it because it just starts fights. It’s not like you can change someone else’s ideas anyway.

I haven’t watched any of the DNC coverage. I just have better things to do with my time. I can read all about what happens afterwards. What President ever accomplishes what they says they are going to do anyway? I struggle to find unbiased news, and watching either convention is anything but unbiased.

It was kinda funny watching Twitter last night during Obama’s speech. You could see everybody’s biases. The Democrats were cheering and the Republicans were bashing. I was just sitting back and laughing. I don’t consider myself a Democrat or Republican. I consider myself an Independent. I research all the candidates and pick the ones I like best. I have voted for both in the past. I do side with Democrats more often, and really don’t like what the Republicans have been doing with our country lately, so this year I will be voting mostly Democrat. That could easily change if the Democrats start doing stupid things.

We have had a Republican President for 8 years now, so I think it is time for a Democrat President. Having different leaders with different ideals is what makes out country great. One party having too much power all the time wouldn’t be a good thing. Many people in our country have different ideals, and the government should reflect that.
