Vote for person who will do least damage
James Prescott states in the April 19th edition of The Daily Herald, "The only reason why a Republican is ever elected is because the Democrats don't show up at the polls."
The actual reason a Republican is ever elected is because more voters believe the lies that that candidate told them than believe the lies that the Democrat told them, because all politicians, regardless of party affiliation are liars.
For many years Republicans told us they would reduce the size of government and stood by as government grew larger. They lied to us. As long as I can remember the Democratic Party told us they were the party for the little people as opposed to the rich ones, and us little people aren't in any way better off than we were.
They lied to us. Hillary Clinton said she had to dodge bullets being fired at her when disembarking from a plane. The tape of said disembarkation shows her walking leisurely and no bullets being fired. She lied to us, as she has on many occasions.
Thomas Sowell expressed it best when he said, "If you want to help someone, tell him the truth. If you want to help yourself, tell him what he wants to hear."
Politicians don't want to help you, folks. They want to help themselves. In the voting booth, I'll choose the liar who I think will do the least damage to our city, state or country.
