Daily Comment

I'm not much into politics. Over the course of my lifetime, I haven't seen where politics has had an important effect on me, personally.

All the times I've gotten politically involved, it has been due to my perception of the effects of policy on society, working for or (mostly against) the common good.

I have voted in every Presidential election since 1972. The first time my vote wasn't 100% in opposition to the Republican candidate was in 2008. I estimate about 25% of my vote was due to Obama's promises - but I would have voted for an unpolished stone running against McCain-Palin.

I went to the opening of Syracuse for Sanders HQ today. I saw a few friends there, and expected I would.

It's a simple calculation: I agree with Sanders, and have agreed with him from the very first time I became aware of him, as the Independent Senator from Vermont.

I have gone more than five years without mentioning politics in this blog.

Shit. I should have probably let that stand.
