Eight Entry

Eighth Entry: 10/30/09 8:12:16 PM
Once again, I find myself writing on a friday. This is most likely going to turn into a pattern. Up until about 3 hours ago, I absolutely had no idea what I was going to talk about. Let’s be honest. Most of the time I have no idea what to write about. However, I do manage to crank out around 500 words that some people enjoy to read. Yesterday afternoon I was tagged in one of those stupid facebook “tag your friends” thing. I never check those, but when I logged on three hours I had 27 notifications. Reluctantly, I checked them all, cursing under my breath as I did this. In this picture I was tagged as “the future president”, or something to that effect. Some of the comments were about how I would make a good president. Let’s be honest here. In my opinion I am not a suitable president. If I had to relate myself to a president, I would say that I would be most like Andrew Jackson. I was having this conversation with someone, and they said “I’d vote for you, if you ran. I agree with all your points and all of them are valid.” I would like to think that all the points I make are valid. If I ran for president, which will never happen, I would not even make it to the primaries. I will not change my views. Also, I think that the American people would not like for someone (me) to tell them how they must improve their life style. They would also not like to hear most of what I say. I do not think that the American people are ready for anybody to publicly censure them. Also, I do not think the American people will elect a stubborn, persistent, confident person who is perhaps flirting with the edge of arrogance.
(note: I would like to establish what confidence is. I am confident in my actions. I never second guess my actions. However, I am not arrogant in the way where I disrespect people. I always try my best to respect everyone and their opinions.)
