I am undecided and let me tell you why. First, let me start by saying I am a registered Republican. I would say that I am fairly open minded and willing to listen to other ideas and thoughts around most topics and platforms. But here is my issue with this year's Presidential Election.
In years past, the debates were about how Candidate Red's platform and policy ideas were better than Candidate Blue and visa versa. There was a clear understanding of where each person sat on different topics; topics that shape how American votes. However, this year, the debates feel more like a divorced couple fighting rather than two people sharing with the voting public how they will address the many issues impacting this country. Sure, there is talk about walls going up, lowering taxes, taking the fight to the enemy's country (oh wait we been doing that for 15+ years) but that isn't what they are debating. Rather, the debates circle around claims of sexual assault, deleting emails, tax filings, and many other things that do not really matter. Rather than talking their policies, the water cooler talk is more about who wore what color and handshakes.
So, yes I am undecided. I am not sure when I will know. I just hope that with all this back and forth, "lesser of two evils" talk going around that Americans of age turn out to the polls and vote based on who they feel will better further the ideas they feel are best for the country.

I believe it is because there is no candidate (out of the two) who is worthy of the throne. Many want to vote for a 3rd party, but are afraid that their vote is being thrown away because voting for who you believe in, doesn't keep someone you don't believe in out. Many others don't believe in voting for the lesser evil either. Too many factors.

Figured. When I use the throne, I hope it is not too loosely...or that there is plenty of TP?

Given the circumstances we are in, the use of throne can be considered appropriate as the two primary candidates are pretty authoritarian.

there should have been decided months ago ... the choices...
... a Loose cannon with a big mouth...
... a Career Criminal Politician and Pathological Liar... with a body count going back to the 70's
... and the alternative is a career idiot who has no idea what is going on in the world...
... or a save the planet activist...
