If you happened to read my rant from yesterday--and didn't fall asleep halfway through--then you know that I am pro-life and it's my one issue. The rest I'm willing to compromise on no matter how distasteful certain views may be to my socially conservative mindset. I've always tried to live with the attitude that so long as nobody gets hurt, and I'm not being forced to view or participate in the debauchery then by all means do your thing--just leave me and my family out of it. I'll save it for another rant, but the latter part of that statement is continuously being encroached upon by the SJW crowd these days, and obviously those who are traditionalists in their morals and value system--like me--aren't too happy about it. Today's rant is different. I want to answer the question posed by this meme:
We must leave the analogy. In this specific election at least one, but some pundits have estimated up to five...FIVE! Supreme Court Justices will be appointed. These justices are appointed for life. At the moment the only thing keeping tens of thousands of illegal aliens from amnesty--and potential voting rights--is a 4-4 tie in the Supreme Court. Hillary has already vowed to continue Obama's policy on this matter. Should she take the White House--with less than 50% of the vote thanks in part to third party voters--she will appoint liberal judges and grant amnesty to tens of thousands of liberal minded voters who wouldn't dare vote against Santa Claus for generations to come. If you are a liberal--you have my sympathies since you have clearly been brainwashed--that's good news for you. If you are a conservative or someone with common sense--like most Libertarians--then you should see why this is not the year to take pride in a strong third place showing. We need to be supporting someone who can actually win, and keep the witch, crooked Hillary out of the office. We need a man like Trump. He may not be your cup of tea, but think of the alternative. On face value, Trump is an outsider, but he'll be advised by conservatives. He'll appoint judges that respect the constitution--not overreaching activists. Libertarians should agree that the constitution is our rule of law, and they should see how Hillary thumbs her nose at it...were she anyone of us she would be going to the big house and not the White House....and no...YOU CANNOT HAVE THE DR.PEPPER....
Due to the controversy that surrounds the actual products on display, I must first state that depending on where you live in the States the answer may be literally 'yes'. Apparently, In most states Dr.Pepper is bottled by one of the 'big two'. I've always seen it as a Pepsi product bottled by Buffalo Rock;Coke was the producer of the similar tasting and as far as I know currently defunct, Mr.Pibb, but apparently Coke will sometimes bottle Dr.Pepper, and yes, in some places the good Dr. is bottled by independent distributors. I'm not sure how it all works, but it might have been better if the meme used an RC Cola or a Jones Soda instead. If they wanted one to represent the Green Party they could have used a knock-off store brand like Sam's American Choice or perhaps a Fresca. In spite of the poor choice representing the 'third party' I think we understand what the meme is trying to say, so let's take a look at the analogy.
We live in a free country--or at least under the pretense of one--and we can vote for whoever we see fit. That's a fact. Now, whether or not those votes actually count for anything is up for debate. In these years the integrity of our elections and whether or not we have an actual "choice" is questionable. I'm not going to go into tinfoil hat land on this one. There's a lot to be said for the conspiracy theories, and they're not as far fetched as most people like to think they are, but for now we will pretend that our votes matter. If you truly see no difference between the Republicans and the Democrats, then exercise your right to vote for a third party. Just do so knowing that you 'voted' for the actual winner. The same goes for people who decide to abstain. There is no shame in voting with your conscience or abstaining outright if you really feel that you should. However, if you do feel that one candidate from a major party is even slightly better than the other, then you should vote for the better among those two. At this point in time there is no way a third party candidate wins our national election, but he can garner enough votes to keep the better man out. I'll lay out the scenario for you and wrap it up below.
Back to our refreshments at a party analogy: Stein--the Green Party candidate--who, in one recent poll was losing to Harambe, the dead gorilla and the fictional candidate, Deez Nutz--is clearly the Fresca or tepid water from a birdbath and nobody is choosing her. Johnson is our Dr.Pepper. You love the taste of Dr. Pepper...but you ain't gonna get it. Trump he's our Coca-Cola. You don't particularly like Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola tastes too bitter for you. You really want that Dr.Pepper...but you ain't gonna get it. Hillary is our foul Pepsi. Pepsi not only tastes bitter, but it will give everyone explosive diarrhea and it will cause you to piss your pants and forget who you are for a couple of weeks. You really want that Dr.Pepper...but you ain't gonna get it. The host takes a vote and he's only placing an order for the beverage that gets the highest score. What are you going to do? You want that Dr.Pepper! It's not throwing a vote away! You decide to make that choice. Surely, the rest of the Dr.Pepper loving party goers will side with you..Who wants a bitter tasting Coke?....and the results...Coke:25....Pepsi:26...Dr.Pepper:2...Enjoy your Pepsi!
