Why I'm voting for Shawn Lindsay... And other political ponderings

oregon State Rep Shawn Lndsay. http://djcoregon.com/news/2011/11/17/up-coming-lawyer-shawn-m-lindsay/ Six years ago I renounced my membership to the republican party. I've always been too independent to conform to the wiles of any one party or candidate, but Oregon doesn't have an open primary so I had to choose a party, and republicans were more in line with my core beliefs. After eight years of Bush (the first four were good  the last four were terrible), I had to distance myself. Parties are occupied by people and people are imperfect. Therefore, all candidates and parties are imperfect. I registered as Libertarian and prepared for the cries of "wasted vote" and "If you don't vote for A that's essentially a vote for B". This is bull shit. Vote for the candidate you like the best, not the candidate with the best chance of winning. The electoral college essentially disenfranchises anyone who does not live in a  swing state. I live in Orego

Another video I put together for my dad. This one contains many "aww" and "oh" pictures. They're all available on YouTube and I've also attached them all to one of my hubs . Enjoy!
