Exactly. I wrote my dog in in the last election. The thing I like about primaries is some people wake up when exposed to the facts from someone inside their parties. Most of Tulsi's supporters have left the Democratic Party and were awake during the COVID nonsense---even if Tulsi wasn't--and the ones I know are all opposed to what we are donig in Ukraine. For me, education and the chance to wake up people is the main purpose of supporting candidates or at least , what they claim to stand for. They've alerady picked the Democratic nominee, but RFK could educate some and break them out of the lockstep mindset. TPTB have already decided the general election too and they won't let anyone on our side become President. Most candidates have blindspots or are just spouting off words but if their words can educate and break people free, that's a win---even though anyone telling the truth and meaning it won't be elected, anymore.

The only votes that actually matter anymore are for local elections. That's why -- for the first time in 43 years -- I'm seriously considering abstaining from the 2024 farce. That said, I neither judge nor begrudge anyone who still chooses to "Trust the farce, Luke".
