In the blue heart of the Deep South lies Atlanta, a dot of mostly progressive thought in an ocean of red voters. I am an out, gay Episcopalian Democrat trying to live his life with as much integrity as possible. This blog is my attempt to comment on local, state and national political stories that capture my interst, happenings in the Episcopal Church of the United States and life in general.
but what about those of us who don't support this system? doesn't voting imply support? we don't really have a choice. we have two candidates who have far more similarities than differences.
The system will never change if you don't participate. I don't see how you can say they are way more similar than different. I've not seen more dramatic differences in major party candidates since I started voting in 1993. If you want more 3rd party access to the ballot, then you have to work with in the system to change that access. Otherwise, nothing will ever change.
