I swear, the next time I hear somebody say that people with an alternate viewpoint to their own should "get out" of America, I'm going to flip out. This is our country. Not yours, not mine, it's everybody's. It's pathetic that there are people in this country who are so afraid that other people disagree with them that their solution is that everyone who disagrees with them should "get out." That's right, I said pathetic, and I mean it. It's the weak-willed who are so afraid to work out their differences with other people that they'd rather just sweep them out the door. This is the major reason that I wish I didn't sound like a quack when I argue for the abolishment of the "party" system of politics. It allows citizens to pigeonhole our government officials into black or white, good or bad. And that's sad. People need to do some soul-searching and discover that our elected officials should feel beholden to the U.S. not to some political machine that got them elected. We should elect people based on whether or not they are good people, with good ideas, who are bent on the government doing what's right for its citizens, not based on whether they're Democrat or Republican. Political parties stink, all of them. And it stinks that we live in a country where people don't want to think for themselves and vote for the right person for the job, but would rather vote for a party affiliation.
