Kentucky (my current home state) votes in the democratic primary tomorrow. On one hand I almost feel a patriotic duty to vote, on the other...eh....let me just take a quote from Douglas Adams

"The Major problem-one of the major problems, for there are several-one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

 To summarize: it a well known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made president should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem"

 I feel that voting for anyone who wants to be president is probably a bad idea. Unfortunately I can't take a brilliant hostage and force him to rule the country. Nor can I get a crazy but supposedly savant like genius to live in a shack in the middle of no where with his cat, and have congress and the senate consult him over important fiscal policy and foreign affairs without his knowing exactly why these strange men keep asking him these questions...if they are in fact asking him questions.

Meh, we'll see how wasted I get tomorrow. That will be the deciding factor. Democracy at work! 

I think the main problem with politics in my country (UK) is voter appathy, most pepole either dont care or just vote for the party there friends/family vote for, which is why the 2 main parties here are both awfull. - IMO anyway.
