VOTE!
Today is the day. If you haven’t already, please go and vote. A few of my German friends have asked me if I want to have an “Election Party”. Um..No. I’ve read on a few sites others express something how this can end up feeling like christmas morning or a best friend’s funeral. If it ends up like a funeral I won’t feel like partying.
I’ve had quite a few people in the past couple weeks ask me how it can be this close. How can so many Americans possibly want to reelect this guy? I don’t know, I say. In the back of my mind I think it is because so many people don’t see what is going on. They are just trying to get by and don’t see what has happened. In speaking with a few other Americans here I’ve expressed that the way things are now in America is like standing on one side of a wide valley and on the other side you see your house or village and some chumps are in there setting it on fire. The rest of your friends and family are asleep in there or just not paying attention as the flames grow. And there is nothing you can do about it.
We’ll see.
