Prospective Presidential Nominee appears at my door and asks, “How do you feel about whether or not the USA should put “boots on the ground” in (whatever enemy country)?” Bye, bye, prospective nominee. I’ve had enough of “leaders” who vote by poll.

My belief is that people who represent me, and have “inside” information, are also probably more knowledge than I am.  Here I should confess that I have never been to a local election center except when I go to vote.  Voting  is really an exciting July Independence Day event, whatever day it comes on.  I do vote primaries, generally based on “family” brainstorming.

I should have common sense and courage to vote what is good for my country, not just what is good for me.   Chances are what is good for my country will be good for me. For instance, I think I would like to see a small  cut across the board for all entitlements. That I say, knowing well that my whole financial dependence is on entitlements. But I can’t see how my $1000 cut to $980 will tear up my budget any worse than it is already torn up by an unhealthy economy. Hopefully the twenty bucks will go to some system that will save me that much or more in a growing economy.

I will add that I’ll have a fit if it is used to promote some agency whose goal is to put more money into someone’s party,  or upgrade his/her limousine. That’s where we need an honest and unbiased media.  A media who reports not a media who controls.

So how do we get an unbiased media? That’s a problem when the media is the one who is selecting the media! The only answer I have at present is to boycott the special interest media groups—that also includes the universities that are turning out graduates who fit into their cookie cutters, seemingly turning out students every year who are less able to cope with routine, work-a-day life.

Nominees, don’t be so concerned about my wants as about my needs. I need a free country run by people of integrity, good sense, and humility enough to listen to people who know, not to those who only want the “gimmes.”

I found it amusing that since the Supreme Court struck down Biden’s ability to cancel student loans, support for Pres. Biden has lessened among millennials. 

Hold it, hang on a bit Mr/Ms Candidate.  I do want you to come to my door, come in a talk, walk with me, rock with me.  Ask what me needs are and what I want.  If you have ideas, take time to share them.  Just do more than stick you finger up to register one more vote on the side of R or D.

Now that I am very close to living in the last decade of my first one years, my computer has downloaded much more than I can put in a single post, so for now toodle-doo.
