I was completing my ballot for the upcoming election and noticed there are 21 options, not including "Write-in", for President/Vice President. What I glean from the media is there are only two actual choices, Trump/Pence and "Not Trump/Pence". Because Biden/Harris receive all of the medias attention of being the go to "Not Trump/Pence" pair the other 19, proudly participating in the American election process, are receiving no recognition. I have a thought that would help show appreciation for the efforts of these ignored candidates. I just need help to spread the word.
Should you know of anyone that wishes to vote "Not Trump/Pence" just ask that they vote for one of the other 19 pairs! Since they are all "Not Trump/Pence" it wouldn't matter which one so it would be a simple choice. The voter can then feel virtuous about being part of the process and not listening to the fake news media or giant corporations propaganda telling them who to vote for. A win/win for sure.
And the best part is that these 19 other candidates will receive the recognition they so deserve for placing their names out there. They will receive votes, like a participation trophy of sorts, to show that some of the American populace truly cares about them and their feelings. The more votes divided between them the better they will feel about themselves.
The "Write-in" option could also be used to honor someone that has made a difference in the voters life. Possibly an actor or professional athlete. Imagine the look on the face of a favorite Yoga instructor when they are told that they were your choice for President. Priceless.
Remember their feelings. Candidates Really Are People. (CRAP). Pass it on.
Thank you,
