 * Politics- Holden's POV**

I’m not usually into politics or anything of the like, but Mr. Stanley got me interested in it. He says that it’s up to the youth to care because it affects us most, since were the future and all. It’s something I thought would bore the hell out of me, but it’s exactly the opposite. The stiff candidates that seem to run the show are all phonies and talk about issues that don’t really matter. As a matter of fact, they opened a debate asking the one guy, Gingrich, who is just the spitting image of honestly and compassion, if he asked his wife to be in an open relationship with his wife. Well, first of all I wouldn’t doubt if he really did, the guy looks like a real gremlin, not to say his personality doesn’t match. Back to what I was saying. That doesn’t matter in politics, they should be asking what he is going to do with the economy and stuff like that. Not his personal life, that’s just pointless.

The other two are just as bad, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. The only one I can say I like is Ron Paul. They’re all Fu***** stuck up republican politicians. They all stand there in their freshly ironed suites all straight with perfect posture like their goddamn kings. Except Ron Paul. While I watched the presidential debate Paul was talking about the issue of abortion. He thinks that the issue of Pro-life or Pro-choice should be up to the states, and not the federal government. Rick Santorum then had to chime in thinking that Paul was directing this statement at him. Since this Santorum guy, who acts like he has a stick up his a** was saying he is pro-life and should make it a federal law not to get an abortion. He thinks every single republican should have the same views about every single thing. Anyway, he tried calling Ron Paul out on supposedly saying that Paul was indirectly insulting him, and all Paul had to say was that Stantorum was too damn sensitive.

I’m not saying I believe in people killing babies, but the states should have the freedom they used to. I think all these self-centered bastards strayed away from the whole freedom deal. The idea of the constitution was to keep the power in states, all this federal shit is ruining it, and that’s Ron Paul’s whole thing he has going, is to keep the power in the states. He is the one glimpse of hope that I can see for this mess up country. The guy might be ancient but he’s cool as hell. But I don’t count on him winning, anything good in this country gets ruined. I actually feel kind bad for the guy, he has barley a chance and he’s the only one who knows what the f*ck to do.
