A Political “Reality”?
Guest article by Alex Allen, of Big Blog of Justice & Freedom
Magical realism or fabulism is when, in a normal or typical time or place, there is an event or situation so outlandish or preposterous, it can scarcely be believed. Typically this refers to literature, but now we find that description is very fitting for this election – which seems to be coming down to, who sweats the most?
Please, I beg of you, don’t vote for either of these two clowns on Tuesday!
It is hard to believe that this is reality, and not some form of prank gone too far or at very least a shared hallucination. Elections are just shows to begin with, but this takes it to a whole new level.
And the media is happy to egg this on, these petty comments being thrown between Trump and Rubio, and their passionate supporters eat it up too. So everyone is happy. The media gets better ratings and the die hard supporters are energized.
Everyone wins, except for the sensible majority of America which is very weary of this show. What are we to do?
Well, we have to free ourselves from the political “reality” which has been created for us by the media over time, and vote upon our beliefs, and not what seems to be politically expedient.

In Oklahoma, the Libertarian party has finally become legitimatized – enough signatures were provided to make it a recognized party in the State.
I encourage all who value and treasure economic and personal liberty to switch their registration to the Libertarian party of Oklahoma at your earliest convenience. If you hesitate because you that the libertarian party is not a truly legitimate party, remember – it is up to us to give it legitimacy.
A principled vote is never a vote wasted.
Good assessment Alex and yes it is about time we consider the GOP a lost cause.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the vote I'm going to vote my principles and I encourage everyone to do so also.
Shameless plug:Rand Paul is still on all 50 states ballots.
