Thank you for putting yourself out there and explaining your reasoning in personal terms. I applaud you for that.
The political parties want us to think it's about them. But our nation is first and foremost about rule of the people, by the people, for the people. Not the party!
Any group or individual that seeks to undermine that ideal in favor of themselves or their own agenda doesn't deserve the support of any citizen.
If the people vote down a canditate or an agenda, no matter how important it seemed to be, well, the people have spoken and their voice must be respected, or it's not democracy the supporters believe it.
Thanks again!
