Well the election is over finally. Can't say that i am pleased with the outcome, but i figured it would be this way. But here is what i officially have to say.
Dear America,
I would like to say first how happy i am for the sheer volume of voter turnout at the polls yesterday. It is looking like around 70% of registered voters came out to vote. Which i feel is truly spectacular. I think it is spectacular in the sense that a majority of Americans are finally understanding what this right means, and how important it is to take part of this process. I hope this is a sign of things to come when it comes to citizens standing up for the rights that they have.
I would also like to say that i am glad that the American people stood up and made their voices heard on who they thought would be best to run this country. I am disappointed for who the nation picked. But i as a citizen have to stand behind the decision that they made, right or wrong.
I think that the Democratic Party needs to celebrate a little for their win. However to the Democrats i would say to be careful. Be careful of the decisions that you make for the American populace. Your decisions will effect everyone, so take everyones thought into account when you are deciding on what needs to happen in Washington. Listen to your constituents and not the lobbyists. Listen to the conservatives, not just the liberals. Listen to the concerns of the citizens, protect the rights of the citizens.
I think that the Republicans need to think hard as for what got them into this loss. You need to get back to listening to the people in your party. You lost this round not because of being a "Republican", but because you turned back on your base. You turned your back on your ideals, you turned your back on your morals, and lastly you turned your back on your word. Because of your party, we now have one of the biggest deficits in our history, we now have more government control, we have more government involvement in our life, we have less say in our government, we have a poor economy, and we have less rights. All of these things are things that your party has constantly spoke against, but have failed to act on.
I think that the message of the Libertarians will start to take hold in the people that voted yesterday. Libertarians need to fight to get themselves on the televisions across this country on a daily basis, by any means. Libertarians need to force their message on the masses. Libertarians need name recognition.
Lastly i would like to say to the American voters. Those of you who voted for the Democrat candidate thinking you will get some free stuff, just remember you never get anything for free. Your so called free things you think you will get will come at the expense of higher taxes, less rights, and more government control.
Last night you made your bed, only now you have to sleep in it. Remember that when things are not going the way that you think that they should, you voted for this. You voted for "free" healthcare that will dictate what doctor you can go to and what procedures you can have. You voted for inferior education at a premium price with no say on what goes on. You voted for redistribution of wealth that will end up being nothing more that the government taking more of everyones money with you seeing nothing but more government wasteful pork spending.
You may ask why i am saying this when i also voted. I did vote, and i can say these things because i voted for what is right. I voted for less taxes, less government, more rights, more government accountability, and more freedom. I voted Libertarian. And only those who voted the way i did can say that. Everyone else voted for a form of Socialism (some voted for more extreme versions than others) and now they will see what their vote will get them.
I pray that in 4 years a real change will take place, and that change will get us back to the Constitution.
Enjoy your bed America,
Spartanburg Libertarian!
