[QUOTE=Osteoknot;2710907]An almost-developed country, Colombia, gets a new president and people use it as an excuse to espouse their own political predilections, glory and doom, while ignoring reality?
This discussion, as do most political discussions, rises almost to the same level for me as one of my favorite (original) allegories, "a pack of rabid pitbulls in a pool of piranha" that I used here to describe the vaccine debates, all points there now moot, as I predicted.
JuJuBee comes across as an appropriately sardonic voice of reason on this topic. Where do people get the idea that change occurs so easily?? Modern politics move in sludge. No one asked me, and I am not going to give another opinion on this thread.
My guy lost. I doubt I will notice any direct impact on my-way-of-being. Actually, I loved Catgirl's response when I asked her if she cared to share who she was going to vote for, she told me, "I have a blank. " Jajajajjaajajajaaaaaa. She probably voted based on the sound of the candidates names, like many people do.[/QUOTE]Before the first round of the Presidential election I asked my girlfriend* if she had properly prepared for the election. She wanted to know how to prepare. I told her the most important preparation was to buy a bottle of tequila before the dry law went into effect. Worrying about the outcome of the election, once voting begins is completely useless. Might as well drink.
Catgirl was probably saying "Voto en Blanco."
