2020 Civic Duty.

The 2020 USA election will be here and gone in 10 days, much national & local importance at stake. No, matter the results of any of these elections, life will go on. The large majority of US citizens will be safer, better off materially, and healthier than the vast majority of people in other countries. Remember that if your candidate (s),  win or lose.

The important thing is if you believe and maintain,  what's much more important than political elections or leaders , your religious faith in God.

What do you use to guide you as you vote ? Well, if you're a strict political party loyalist, then you just go with the party line. My belief is that philosophy is what is causing such division in our country. It flows from the  WH, to Congress, to Main Street USA. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡² We don't look at the individual or subject,  but rather to see if the person or legislation is either
or

That isn't my guide, not for a long time. I've been mocked and labeled by folks who don't see the deficiencies or weaknesses of their boxed-in controlling  party. Not blinded by the light, but blinded by the limitations of the party.

I go by my moral compass, my reading about the candidates etc  , my years of life and observation, not some tv ad full of propoganda or cable news stations controlled by the left or the right. My opinion & perspective may differ than yours, "bully right"  as that's what we Americans are about.

Just go vote, or mail it in & be respectful of your American neighbor who differs. 

A good guide for me.

Or this passage: 

MT 22:34-40

When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees,

they gathered together, and one of them,

a scholar of the law tested him by asking,

"Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" 

He said to him,

"You shall love the Lord, your God,

with all your heart,

with all your soul,

and with all your mind.

This is the greatest and the first commandment.

The second is like it:

You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 

The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."
