Well, it was the democracy you have, and you could either choose to vote a fascist or a less despotic environment to bring the choice you wanted. Well, had. It's no longer your choice, so don't worry, put whomever you want on that dart board. Not even American and the people I interact with through social networks no longer matter even if they are Americans, so that really should be a load off my mind. Really should be focusing on the ways democracy is under threat in mine.

As if there ever was a "democracy". You can certainly choose to feel doomed and helpless. It's your choice.

TheObviousSolution is a pretty powerful username, I still hold hope in my heart that you can embody that energy.
