It is easy to say «I will not be apathetic and go to vote like a good citizen». The reality is that the Republicans, Democrats, and their Media Machine pounds and promotes candidates and the people just sit on their chairs and believe everything. They even believe that an alternative party is a wasted vote when actually the candidates of today are behaving like little kids who tell their «mommy» and «daddy» about the «big bad bully».
My fellow Americans, the way to give up apathy, become a good citizen, and vote is to inform yourselves of the issues and the alternative parties that exist such as the Greens and Libertarians. The Greens and Libertarians have been accused of being everything bad even though the Libertarians and Greens have done more on the local level than any Republican and Democrat [who are Anti-American] would have ever done.
After informing yourself of the alternatives, confront the Republicans and Democrats with hard and reflective questions about what they want, who they are, how are they going to deal with the issues of the day. Ask very tough questions like the ones that will make them squirm.
Challenge yourself to ask the media to include alternative candidates or organize a boycott of everything that they represent. After all, if the Writer’s Guild of America could force the mainstream media to their knees, imagine the power of people.
Another way to prove that you are a good citizen is to write to your congressman and tell them that you support the impeachment of Bush and Cheney before the 2008 Elections. Enough Damage has been done to the country by the Republicans and The Democrats. It is time for a change a change that only the Libertarians or Greens suggest.
For those who are voting Libertarian, I want you to vote for George Phillies since he is a man of honour and integrity in a country that has neither. At the present rate with the same people running the country, the USA will be heading to a Civil War or its Dissolution. I do not want to imagine what will happen to the person who is apathetic when he or she finds out that there is no USA, maybe they will not know the difference or start complaining about the lack of necessities. With our apathy, we have only ourselves to blame.
My Advice: GET OFF YOUR BUTT, BE A GOOD CITIZEN, KNOW THE ISSUES, VOTE FOR AMERICA, VOTE LIBERTARIAN FOR GEORGE PHILLIES.
