Upon reflection, I have just as often picked losers in my history as a voter.

Bush
Clinton
Dole (l)
Gore (l)
Bush
McCane (l)
Obama

This is the juncture where I changed my registration from Reoublican to unaffiliated.

Clinton (l)
Biden
Harris (l)

I still think I was right every time and that our country would be better off if everyone did what I did

18 million less people did not vote. That is unbelievable. That is not a change election. People just didn't care.

Kamala got 15 million less votes than Biden in 2020

Trump got 3 million less votes than he did in 2020.

The republicans are basking in like they have some kind of huge mandate. I question that. People just didn't vote or thought it inconceivable Trump could win. The dems ran ahead of Kamala in virtually every race. People were not excited to vote for either of these people.

My ideal candidate is someone like GT Bynum. A problem solver who is not too ideological. I saw that in Kasich too. Asa Hutchinson was a great option too.

Trump lost me 100% by his reaction to the January 6th riot. I did not like his leadership approach but his behavior that day disqualified him forever from my vote. He really showed himself and I can never forget it.

Political parties are pretty much fully transformed for the remainder of my lifetime. We have the fear mongers versus the abortion lovers. Both disgust me. So I expect to be unaffiliated until the day I die. I expect every Presidential vote I cast from here out will be for my judged lesser of two evils.

It's fascinating to me how folks can see things so differently. I feel that social media and constant misinformation from all sides has made the political divide so much worse. Most Americans are moderates and lean one way or the other...they have much more in common than they think. But all the BS that is floated out there makes each side think the other is crazy. However, if you take the time to watch all candidates in interviews, debates, speeches, Q&A's, podcasts and anything else you can get your hands on, you see that many of the things said about all candidates is either embellished or just patently false. It is ruining our political discourse.

My point about Kennedy was more about running a more moderate liberal that could discuss issues and think on their feet. I personally would have loved to see Tulsi Gabbard on the democrat ticket. She was my favorite of the group in the 2020 primary.

The good thing for all of us is that we have a Constitution that established three branches of government to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. Those checks and balances are important when we end up with bad candidates.
