Don't limit yourself to the main parties

Posted September 30, 2016 1:00 am

I am told a vote for Mr. Gary Johnson is a vote for Mrs. Hillary Clinton. I am told, "Why vote for someone that doesn't have a chance to win?"

Maybe that's what the established order wants you to believe. Maybe it's time to stop listening to that mantra. Maybe it's time to stop listening to those voices.

I have always believed that I should vote for the candidate that most closely aligns with my views and/or the most qualified. I intend to vote for Mr. Gary Johnson.

The two-party system was viable when people were willing to discuss issues and make compromises. I am tired of this "us against them" mentality. Too many people are convinced that they are right about everything and others must be "idiots" because they "think differently than me."

Time to get rid of this two-party system that is polarizing this great country.

Make a difference. Don't listen to those voices. Vote for Mr. Gary Johnson.
