I've never claimed to be big on politics, or how the process works. This is because I don't believe that my vote makes a difference. What can one person do too a system that more often seems to look out for big companies and large corporations instead of the individuals of a country? But yes... I still vote - for the principal of voting itself. Besides... if I don't vote, do I get the right to complain? ;-)
So my post won't be on which candidate I liked, or telling you how you should've voted like I've seen so many posts about on facebook - instead my post is about how I think the process should work, and this not from a political science major or activist, just from me.... middle of the road typical average American.
A two-party system.
That's odd. I counted more than two choices for President on my ballot. I think if the third party candidates jumped through the proper hoops to get their names on the ballot - then they should get equal time on the debates.
But why stop at the debates? For a long time I've felt that political ads should not be allowed? Why? because it seems like the candidate with the best ads ends up winning. How is that fair? Instead I think there should be a 24/7 channel dedicated just to politics with each group appearing on the ballot getting equal time.
And that's my more than 2 cents.
