Last night at the DNC all I heard is about how much they cared about me. They understood me. They loved me. This confuses me a little. For the last 3 1/2 years all I have heard from the DNC is how I am racist, terrorist, SOB, and host of other derogatory terms and accusations. So which is it? do they care for me or do they hate me? I am confused.
As I said before, and is perfectly evident over the past 2 days...the market and indices are a POOR metric for the health of our economy or the collective prosperity of Americans. A BETTER metric is REAL GDP (indexed for inflation) (even though I think the inflation rates are suspect).
I'm 60 and have been voting for a while but this year, I will not be casting my vote for the lesser of the two major evils and instead am going to cast my 'protest' vote for Gary Johnson (yes, effectively a vote for Obama, who I did vote for last time). Not that it matters, since I live in California.
His platform and party might be unrealistic in dealing with the realities of the problems we face but at least he has some pretty rational ideas and he isn't part of the currently broken system. I'm a middle-of-the-roader who cannot fathom the divisiveness in this country in the face of such large "common enemy" problems that we should be able to compromise on and begin to solve. Hard line blanket defenses of either the Democrats or Republicans perplex me.
Not sure what I'm going to do with my Senate/House vote.
