Voltaire and Camus would vote for...

NEITHER.
Duh.

Anyway, I don't know anything about politics to be honest. I don't really even know what the difference is between democrats and republicans. All I see from these two are debates and wastes of millions of money supporting themselves. I was just thinking why they can't just be in some broadcasting station campaigning but then I thought about it some more…it’s because they get paid and get to be popular through a live show. In terms of Camus, it’s a stranger coming to talk about what they’ll do to represent millions and billions of strangers – now that is a live show.

Would a satirist really vote at all? Voltaire would most likely just write another novel about the ridiculousness of the government and the millions spent on self-promotion. Would an absurdist vote? At most it is as meaningless to Camus as most other things are.

I heard either in a video from class, or/and some other places around media – why can’t the two parties work together. After all, they seem to say that they want what America wants, however they’re on opposing sides. OBVIOUSLY they have different viewpoints on certain topics, but isn’t that what checks and balances are for? Draw up some sort of document on both sides, Republican and Democrat, compare, compromise, vote. Instead they have to make commercials to slur and demean each other. It’s absurdity. It’s a show.

“Democrats are generally more liberal. They believe in a larger federal government, and often implement tax plans to try to help the less privileged. They tend to believe the government must look for the greater good above the individual person in terms of welfare and do what is necessary to make the populace more "equal". They assert that the values our country holds must evolve over time, and, therefore, tend to support such controversial choices as Pro Choice and gay marriage.

Republicans are generally more conservative. They believe that the answers do not lay with the government generally, but rather with the people. They want less government interference and tend to believe more strongly in property rights and less strongly in well-fare rights, holding economic equity above equality. Many republicans are religious and tend to hold to the morals characterizing the Founding Fathers, which results in general disapproval of abortions and, for some, gay marriage.” 

They both seem awful and biased to me. Behind door 1, equality but less self-supporting freedom, and door 2 you get a little more freedom and more self-support HOWEVER, you have to live like Scarlet Letter times.

I'm not sure who these 2 would vote for, but what I know is that, until there is a person like...Gandhi. More spirituality but not of the overbearing pushy religious sort. No offense - really. Let's not make these 2 great novelists vote for a mistake in our society.
