Do you get news from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart?  Then you’re more than likely one those people who cry and complain that political parties ignore their petty little wants, but never participate when given the chance.

You won’t answer the phone when pollsters call, or make up stupid answers.  You’ll ignore politics by acting all indignant and say all politicians are crooks, and give a knowing sneer like you’re above such petty things.

You think its a crime that you feel ignored, almost like you’re just one out of 300 million people.   Wait a minute, you are just one out of 300 million people.  The point isn’t that your voice is heard above the rest.  The point is that you particpate in society, which through democracy learns to speak with one overall voice.

Political parties pay attention to those who pay attention to them.  And it is more than just voting.  You need to figure out just what party you agree with more.  No party will meet all your needs, you need to make a hard decision and choose.  Even if it is one of the third party candidates.  But then get involved.  Go to meetings.  Parties change over time.

That’s why the Democrats, a party of racists, slave owners, and KKK members now grovel before the minority voters.  And why the Republicans went from 40 acres and a mule to you’re an adult now, it’s time to make your own wealth, you’re on your own.  You can help change the planks in the platform.
But the worst is if you are one of those that act like Jon Stewart is the only honest guy in “news.”  You’re even more  deluded, thinking that Jon Stewart, who is a frickin’ entertainer, is actually presenting honest news.  We all know that’d be Geraldo.
