Changing?  I just want to avoid them going over a cliff.  I have no more grand visions.

That still requires a change of course. Why would you keep the steering wheel in the same hands, then?

I get that Hillary is the lesser of two evils, and as I've said before, if the Texas race is that close I'll pinch my nose and vote Clinton in an anyone-but-Trump vote. But so long as it remains a wide margin in one's state, I'd urge anyone reading to vote third-party so that we can raise the visibilityof all alternatives.

This isn't about grand vision, this is about grass-roots, one-vote-at-a-time slogging. If you don't have that energy, that's okay. But don't piss on those who do, lest you become an obstacle to the change you know needs to happen.

And you know it needs to happen.
