Who Can Decide

Who can decide which candidate will be President of The United States of America.
There are four Presidential hopefuls making a bid for The Office.

What am I saying!
There are only two.
The Libertarian Party and the Green Party.

What the …
I must be ….
The only two real candidates are from the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
Yeah…
Instead of looking at the Presidential nominees. Lets do the Vice Presidential picks.

Yeah, that’s the ticket.

For the Democratic side; a 58 year old Senator from Virginia elected 4 years ago to the Senate. Elected Governor ten years ago and Lieutenant Governor fourteen years ago. Elected Richmond Mayor eighteen years ago. Represented Richmond’s 2nd District on the City Council twenty-two years ago.

Claim to fame.
A scandal-free background. (On Meet The Press).
Served at every level of government.
Has not lost an election
Is fluent in Spanish.
Said of himself, "I am boring ... but boring is the fastest-growing demographic in this country”. (On same Meet The Press).

[Comparatively, me.
I’d call it uneventful. Just the way I like it].


And for the Republican side; a 59 year old from Indian elected Governor 3 years ago. Served as Indiana’s 2nd and 6th congressional Representative first for 2 years and 11 years.

Claim to fame.
Signed into law in 2015 a religious freedom bill. Because said Governor Pence it would extend legal protections to Indiana business owners who didn't want to participate in same-sex weddings, citing their religious beliefs. (A week later signed an amendment  religious freedom law. With one revision that sexual orientation and gender identity will be explicitly protected in the new law).
He described himself as Christian, conservative and Republican in that order.


[Okay comparatively, me.
Human first.
Person second
Citizen of The United States Of America third.
In that order].


Also Governor Pence signed into law, this year, the nations strictest abortion law.
Has not lost an election.
Oh. Least I forget.
Endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for President.
