RETRACTION

So, I was disappointed last night. I will not be voting for Erwin Haas. Sadly, he didn't live up to my hopes, and neither did the libertarian party of Grand Rapids. That being said, I did meet a great candidate named Dan Johnson. He's running against Pete Hoekstra. I wish I could vote for him.

I still stand by the fact that we won't see change continuing to vote for more of the same. I guess here is my point: I am going to vote for a candidate outside of party... I will vote for candidates on the individual basis. So, if a blue dog democrat is most constitutional, I'll vote him... if a Republican is like Ron Paul or BJ Lawson, I'll vote for him. If a third party candidate, whether that be Libertarian, Constitutional, Independent, or Green follows the constitution, I'll vote for him.

I haven't lost faith in third parties... I just need to try before I buy a little more.
