I’m not strongly on any political side. I see good (and evil) on all sides. I’ve voted for most. I think it’s good that we change parties in charge now and then. I think it brings balance and accountability to politics.

What I am a huge supporter of is our wonderful, but flawed, political system. We vote and our leaders accept our decision. They pack up their offices and move. No grabbing onto power, arresting the opposition, assassinations, or military coup d’etat.
It’s another one of these modern-miracles I’ve been talking about. Be very grateful for the system we have and the people who submit to it!
Whatever you think of politicians, be glad we have ones who accept and submit to our system.
