Debate Without Hate

One of the great things about this great country is that we are able to express our opinions and back our candidates without the fear of physical reprisals.
~
There has never been a forced exchange of power based upon election results here.  We debate fiercely, sometimes in bad taste, and sometimes in an irritating fashion.  But despite the vigor and rancor, Americans are tolerant of each other, and supportive of the will of the majority.
~
I may not understand the logic of your support for a particular candidate... I may even get annoyed and vocal about your exclaimations and rhetoric... but I ultimately support your right to make a choice.
~
Even if you want a fake Indian to be your Senator.
~
So this season, we will again see the amazing American system of tolerance of others, freedom of speech, and debate without hate.
~
If Obama gets re-elected, we may not understand it, we may not like it, but we will tacitly support it.
