Election Day Extravaganza
A vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil. Don’t act surprised or complain when the inevitable happens.

Remembering Daniel Webster This Election Day
Tomorrow is Election Day.
There’s going to be a lot of candidates and a lot parties on the ballot—Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, etc.
Someday, when I enter the booth in my local polling station to pull that lever of democracy, I hope to see the words Peace Party next to a candidate’s name.
That’s the label Daniel Webster campaigned under in 1814.
If the Left Wins . . .
The Left insists that if people don’t vote for the Left on Tuesday, it constitutes what the Left styles a “threat to our Democracy.”
But what if they do?
Then it is all-but-certain there will be as much “democracy” in this country as there was in countries such as the German Democratic Republic – the former East Germany – or is, in the current Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea.
Also National Socialist Germany, where “democracy” voted in the National Socialists. After which there was no more voting.
Leftists love that kind of “democracy.” Which, to be fair, is the only kind of “democracy” there can be.
The Myth that the Two Party Democrat vs. Republican Choices Bring Different Results Through “Elections”
With national elections just days away now here in the United States, this is a good time to review the facts regarding the U.S. two-party system where during national elections the public heads to the polls, or votes via the mail, for either a Democrat or Republican candidate for elected office.
The general belief among most who cast votes is that the United States is a “democratic” nation where “public servants” are elected by the people to serve their electorate in Washington D.C. in the House of Representatives and Senate (Congress), and as the President of the United States.
However, this notion that the people of the United States choose their leaders who then determine public policy as a representative of their constituents, is a myth.
On 'Democracy'
Democracy is the governing principle that says that 50.0001% of the population gets to decide what happens with no limitations and can enforce that decision via whatever means are necessary to do so. If you are in some way in the minority, no matter what the issue might be or how close the question provided you're out of the majority by just one vote, your opinion has no value and you have no choice whatsoever even if the majority opinion is that you must be reduced to penury or even die.
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep taking a vote on what's for dinner, in short.
A Republic, on the other hand, is a form of government where explicit limits are placed on what the population can do through said government and collective action. It is a form of government where the people have inalienable rights that are recognized, but not granted by said government.
