I hope I'm right.

Thanks LightHouse. We will know a lot this time next week.

VP pick Weld was a mistake in my opinion. I saw him asked about the FBI looking into more e-mails and he reacted like it was no big deal.. Any Libertarian should have jumped on this as another example of how corrupt our current crop of politicos are. .As a Libertarian I do respect your choice.

I am abstaining by choice.

It has but driving on the edge of the cliff for the last 10-20. :)

The course has been set for over 100 years.

I sure hope so! Anything or anybody but Hillary!!!

I remember that Rearden learned that, since he was the man from whom everything was to be taken, he had no say and had no way to influence what was done in Washington. He was the man to be sacrificed. We are periously close, aren't we?

Some are saying that this could resemble the election of Reagan in 1980. The polls were tight right up until the weekend before and then broke heavy for Reagan. With the anti establishment sentiment out there I think that could be what happens.

I know this is a very difficult choice for many good people, who are trying to decide between the lesser of two very big evils. I respect you all.

As for me, I cast my early vote here in Florida for Libertarian Gary Johnson, with a clean conscience. I agree with him about 90% on policy issues. But most importantly, he doesn't represent the 2 forms of anti-freedom most Americans are choosing between: (1) government bureaucratic domination - Hillary, (2) populist authoritarianism - Lord & Master Trump.

As the country chooses one of the 2 anti-freedom toilets to flush the country down into next week, let me just say that I expect very dark times ahead. Good luck to us all...

I understand your reasons. I have to abstain from the Presidential Election.

For the presidency, Georgia is winner take all based on popular vote and if the polls are any guide Georgia's electoral votes appear destined for Trump.

I agree 100%!

I often think about Hank Reardon and how he almost ignored politics and politicians. He hired Wesley Mouch who sold him out. We have to start paying more attention to who is elected and what they do after they are elected.

If Trump gets elected, I believe we have one chance to reverse course and it has to happen quickly. I think we are headed off a cliff even if Trump is elected.The course has been set over the last 20+ years. If the course is not corrected fast enough to head off more economic turmoil, Trump will get blamed. This will send us into the abyss of the democratic party for years to come afterwards.

I was awkward here, but what I am trying to do is to take this from the political (who to vote for), to the philosophical (objective reality is crucial).

Rich, I live in a gerrymandered district where my vote is irrelevant. I am with you. Alas, Ayn Rand or John Galt is not on the ballot. This is politics, not philosophy. Although I am pretty sure the result is predetermined and rigged, I am sure that Trump has done something very important. He has said, screw political correctness! He had struck back at the Establishment. All of this is important, because my hope is that more and more people will stand up and not be afraid to speak the truth. For a long time to speak the truth, by which I mean to represent reality, has been the surest way to be attacked and buried. We need objective reality to be spoken. That can only lead to good.

Hi Ed. With the amount of work that needs done I just don't see being able to make all the changes at once. We simply have to change the trajectory. Reagan did it and then Bush ruined it. I still have hope.

Reluctantly, I'm with you Rich! I hope he gets in and proves me wrong about him.
