Every election in a Democratic country is an exercise in freedom to elect which candidate you think (?) would be in your best interest. It’s all good in theory, but Money and Power (MAP) has eroded that pipe dream. The MAPs start investing in their selections at an early age by working them up the lying ladder and feeding them treats called: favors. When the candidates learn the intricacies of human persuasion and manipulation, they advance to the Superbowl of Slander, Libel, and Deformation as they label their rivals with any ordinary human defect and plant concerns into a voter’s head about their opponents qualifications. It continues from both directions until the election is complete and the people can get on with their lives, knowing that their choice was nothing more than a compromise and a waste of time. But this is how the brainiac human world works. They constantly engage the stupid stick in the voting booth and then celebrate the win (?). In America, the top cat is elected every 4 years, and the massive numbers of the Hoi polloi wear their buttons and wave their banners to endorse their little researched candidates. Their loyalty is merely based on what party, what religion, what color socks they wear, or what great society changing idea is introduced but rarely augmented. When election day is over and the candidate buttons go into storage or the landfill, rest assured that a few people made a lot of money running this dog and pony show. Perhaps our 2 major political parties can jettison the archaic elephant and donkey icons and replace them with a Labrador and Arabian substitute. At least everyone would pick their favorite animals and go away knowing that Fido or Flicka will do exceptionally well for the plebs because they always do exactly what they promised they’d do. 🐕 🐴……🦧
