Have you ever had an opinion and wanted to share it, but not know how? Well, this is pretty much my solution. You will see views on politics, religion, and anything else I want to rant about.

#NeverTrump #NeverClinton
So there are those out there that are using the hashtags #NeverClinton and #NeverTrump. Many of which are saying that about both candidates. These men and women now find themselves in a sticky situation. Unless there is a brokered convention in July, it now appears that these two candidates will be the ones that face off come November. Here is the problem. Since I began voting in 2004, each ballot I have looked at has other parties. Yet many who were posting these hashtags are now saying they are going to vote for the lesser of two evils. In their argument, they claim they do not want a wasted vote. To me, that is the true problem. If you were so adamant about these two candidates, voting for that candidate seems like a wasted vote. Either way, you are putting someone into office that you do not want. If you truly believe that these two candidates are not President material and you vote for one anyways, you have become part of the problem. There are other candidates out there. You just have to do more research about them, and when the you cast a ballot in November, you can hold your head up high, because you stuck to your principles. A presidential election should not be about the "lesser of two evils." It should be about principle. Because as long as people keep voting on the idea of "lesser of two evils" the two party system is going to continue to ruin the republic. If you are in this category, and the candidate you vote for does not win, it is not a wasted vote. Maybe people will see that we do not have just two options, and maybe in 2020 people wake up to the idea of the third party.
