Self-appointed Analyst
I have several friends, (I sincerely hope I can still call them friends after expressing my views), who simply cannot accept the fact that the political persuasion of the majority of Americans is not necessarily the same as theirs.
These folks are the ones who constantly bombard cyberspace with e-mail in attempts to prove that the Candidate that the American Voter’s choose will surely bring rack and ruin to our country.
If an elected candidate is not their particular choice, they cannot bring themselves to accept that he is “The Man” for the length of his term; or to even be civil in their efforts to change the minds of all the recipients in their address book.
It does not matter to them that our system of Government is based on checks and balances, (i.e. two or more parties). They are convinced that only members of one political party, (theirs), should be allowed to become our leaders.
Apparently they have forgotten that this was tried in Germany and this form of Government spawned World War II. Have my friends ever considered what would happen if the party of their choice decided to change horses in the middle of the stream, after they were elected; and thus, no longer supported their personal agendas?
In this event, they would have no choice but to live under, more or less, a dictatorship or else to change their affiliation. Granted, they have every right to disagree; but do they have the right to insist that all other Americans accept their views without question? I think not.
After all, isn’t this what was planned for Nazi Germany by Adolf Hitler?
I don’t know about you; but I have grown exceedingly tired of receiving the prejudiced e-mails from these self-appointed political analysts; therefore, I respectfully request that they decline from attempting to force their beliefs on me. All they have to do is to highlight my e-mail address from their address book and press the delete button.
It’s just that simple. Thank you.
