I do so very much want to ignore this election. Normally I succeed pretty well. Now with Facebook, it is hard to ignore. I don't want to get into who I would elect. For me the choice is pretty obvious but that is my personal feeling. What I wonder about is the incredibly divide between people in this country. Let's not even discuss the world. That one is too much for my mind to contemplate. The truth is, I feel the divide even in my own world. I want to ignore all the things I see from the other side. Things I see that make me disgusted and worried how someone can see others that way. But doesn't that make me part of the problem. I wanted to start deleting people from Facebook because of their political allegiances. But I believe that makes me part of the problem. Where will we end up if we aren't open to at least trying to understand the opposition. Politics has become this ugly thing. At this point, what are we gaining by so vehemently hating our opposition. We must find cooperation and unity. It is a sad truth in our world that the people who should be in politics would never go near it.
