Not so Super Tuesday
I decided not to vote today, I thought about it for about 20 minutes in my car. It's been my new favorite place for self-reflection.
To me, every candidate wants to appeal to a base that's horribly close minded and selfish, whether it's a bunch of selfish white kids, or selfish rich old white people, or selfish poor old white people. Anything they say about minorities seems hollow, they seem to be talking about it because the media wants them to. It's gets them ratings and votes, but they don't really care once the election's over. Those people are who they're really trying to talk to.
It's bit sad, because it's exactly like disliking a video game because you don't like the fans.
I'm pretty sad that Obama's leaving.
Nursing School Related: I can't stand my control freak group member, she's wants to do things her way, on her time, and any sort of diversion from that is a personal affront to her. Guess who's doing most of the affronting?
