It is heating up in the presidential race right about now. and i have a interesting concept to share with anyone who is out there listening. every news source is concerned with the bipartisan story lines, well i have a one that we can call a bipartisan joint venture. in a conversation with my friend and now fellow blogspot neighbor, we discuees the impacts of what it would be like if the presidential ticket was to have a democrat and a republican.
on the surface we were thinking that at the very least it would be the best way to galvanize the two parties and the American public who support them. maybe that sounds a bit more than a simple task, but then again i like to be optimistic about society. even though i think they don't deserve it a lot of the time. but before i fly off into a tangent, lets just keep it to the one topic for the day. so, back to the story here.
but imagine in modern day America with all our talk of non – segregation, we still are definitely divided politically. and as a nation i hypothesize that we would be more united if we were led by a team that is more representative of the people. if we are to be split in two party wise, it would reflect the society and our relationships. take for example the governor of California, a well known republican, who is married to maria shriver, a descendant of the most recognizable democratic family of our recent times. these two on super Tuesday were on their way into the polls, and were caught by a TV reporter, and asked who they will vote for. maria shriver's response, an emphatic “Obama”! our governator, however,, declined to comment, but we all know now he is pulling for senator McCain. to me this is a perfect example of a family unit that is distinctly different in political affiliation, but are a functional married couple. i don't live in that household so i don't know about their private life. but as a couple im sure they argue and debate on a lot of private and public issues, and the same is true for any couple in America. which is why having a bipartisan ticket would bring together the hatfeild's and mccoy's of the nation. besides, why do we still need to pick sides if we are one nation under god?
ok, now that i have put that precious seed of thought out into the blogosphere, and you the readers, i want to inform you that i am in now way a political pundit. no one is going to base their poll, or vote on what i say, but i am always for taking a moment to look at things from new angles anytime!
This is exactly why I think the #1 vote getter should be president and the #2 should be vice. This would certainly mean a democtrat/republican- dare I say, independent- administration, which would encourage working across the aisle to get anything done, and would be a better representation of our country as a whole.
