Unfortunately, it is a manipulation that I cannot do a thing about. The only real change in this country will happen when 1) we either start a civil war and start over, or 2) we finally reach a point where over 55% of the voting populace has their hand out to accept a government entitlement. Unfortunately the second is the most likely. Continuing to vote for your man instead of voting against someone who is pushing this country full steam ahead to reach #2 is something that I don't understand. And yes, I stand by the fact that this is the most critical presidential election that I have ever voted in. Even more critical than Carter vs. Regan. We have never been this close to losing the US to the rest of the world.
