- I reject the premise that being president requires a person with compromised integrity.
Yeah, I used to get annoyed when people said they wouldn't vote because all the options are bad, but I'm getting to that point. Now that the big social issues have been mostly resolved by the Supreme Court, it feels like the Establishment of both parties are warmongers, and it's really just a question of how you want the economy destroyed.
What's that? Just sayin'.
Look, I'll vote for whatever Democrat makes it to the finals, not because I'm a blind partisan but because both options are preferable to the three opposite front-runners right now. Yes, even Clinton. I don't actively like her, I just don't dislike her enough to give the most important election maybe of our generation to the likes of Donald J. Trump.

I feel an analogy coming on.
"What do you want for dessert, grasshoppers or tree bark?" "Uhh, neither?" "Not an option. You have to pick one." "Ok, just give me one randomly." "What‽ But tree bark is so much better than grasshoppers? It's crunchy, and doesn't squirm. Why wouldn't you pick the best one?" "But you can roast grasshoppers, and they're healthy. It's apathetic people like you who are ruining dessert!" "Look guys, I'm just trying to read my book over here. And not vomit."Woah, that's a really weird analogy.
And for the record, I'm not saying you shouldn't, uh, vote for chocolate. I'm just saying that in the event that chocolate isn't on the menu by the time we, er, actually get to dessert... fuck it, I'm confused.
I'd pick grasshoppers, they're actually not bad.
