Now the following must be taken into consideration...
- I hate Neo-cons. Neo-cons are why I can't actively identify myself as a moderate conservative in my classes at NYU. Somehow the party of Abraham Lincoln, the political party which was elected to take America out of Vietnam has become populated with these freaks and the Democrats are not much better.
- I oppose the war in Iraq
- I believe in personal freedom and hate the way religion and politics are like inbred cousins to each other in this country.
- I believe that while not intrinsically benevolent the free market is the best economic and social indicator we have right now in the western world. More immediate than the media and with higher participation than political democratic process.
So I started out supporting Chris Dodd...
Did you laugh? Well It turned out you have every right to. Pretty soon it became clear that this was the equivalent of hoping that Judas Ihateamerica would win a pro-wrestling match against Hulk Hogan.
So like the rest of the internets I decided to traipse over to Ron Paul and his humongous throbbing "money bombs" with all the subtlety of an autistic chimpanzee in a My Chemical Romance shirt.
Well that train never really left the station. Perhaps it was the huge wads of cash, including 10 dollars out of my non-income which is weighing it down.
So I am left with McCain, Clinton and Obama
Well McCain wants to stay in Iraq and this kind of negates the small benefits which would of been gained to our economy from his other policies. So fail.
Hilary Clinton. Remember what I said about neo-cons? Epic fail
So that leaves me with... Someone who has never had any management experience at any large scale political level, whose economic policies are at odds with my own values and a very dodgy history regarding his religious background.
What does that make me? Well a digger of course.
