Damn I feel depressed

Many people think, so what if John Kerry becomes president? It’s not the end of the world. In the big scheme of things, blah blah blah.
Well, I finally found a perspective that actually does support this theory.
The cosmos will be a deathly silent graveyard, cloaked in perpetual night.As best we can deduce from measurement, this somber scenario will play out endlessly. There will be no reversal, no Big Crunch to start the cycle anew. The cosmos ” dark, uninteresting and inactive ” will simply continue to expand and thin.
So here’s the big picture: the universe begins with a 100 billion-year blip of activity, and then flatlines to endless paralysis. All our works ” all the poetry, the science, the tenderness, and the rock-and-roll ” all will be stilled and lost. The death of the universe is not just long ” it’s eternal. The short, bright spurt at the beginning where we now find ourselves is not only insignificantly short in the cosmos’ history, it’s infinitely short.

ok um.. well my feeling is not a matter of depression but sheer fear.. if kerry becomes president, he is completely the worst option that could ever fall into office.. how on earth did he even win the democrat vote in the first place,he is a walking talking joke…
i asked a friend of mine who will she be voting for? and she better not tell me it is kerry.. she replied, (and she has been really wrapped up in some life “stuff”, i say stuff to be brief) that she really has not paid much attention to who was running and what was going on.
I told her briefly about kerry with a compare/contrast, and told her i would be happy to offer more. She said that she takes my word for it and would vote bush, so would her husband..
she does not hold bush in a high light, but when i expressed some minor thoughts i have she agrees completely..
and yes, it would be fear of someone who can not commit to anything running this country! imagine the chaos!
