My feelings towards politics are considerably strained at the moment. Amongst my friends, the attitude can be summed up by the phrase, “Thank goodness this is nearly over.”

In 2012, ‘Less-Opposed’ Just Doesn’t Cut It

Joe Belsterling: "I look around the world of politics and wonder how so much corruption, deceit, and self-indulgence exists. That is why I cannot and will not make the concession of supporting someone in whom I do not truly believe."

Young Voters: The Right Change Is Romney

Nothing could dissuade me from sitting out on a vote that has the potential to decide the future of our country. I want to give Romney a chance because I believe that solid business principles and smart cuts in government spending will create jobs and put our economy back on track.

Why You Think Mitt Romney Won the Debate

Non-incumbent party candidates usually benefit from the first debate, presenting attractive (read: new) policies compared to the ones we are currently complaining about. Mitt Romney's win is not all that surprising.

The Environmental Footprint of American Imperialism and Mitt Romney’s Response

If we as a society start taking environmental stewardship seriously and downsize our military forces and make legitimate changes to our priorities, then we can avoid leaving behind a wounded planet marred in a legacy of violence and hate for our descendants.
