    Not I. It's a very serious matter.

    I've come to view politics and politicians as serving no one but themselves, their friends' best interest and whomever pays them the most to buy their (the politicians') influence.

    My faith in our government ebbs daily, and NEITHER party has the best interests of its constituency at heart.

    Then you've never voted. The voting booth is where and how the American people express what they want.

    Three million more Americans wanted Hillary in the White House instead of Trump. Why doesn't that apply here?
