I'm Voting For Romney

[Aroura]

After reassessing my views on my "Americans, Do Not Vote" thread, it seems that I am going about things the wrong way. You guys are right: Obama is the better candidate, and Romney would surely screw things up. That's just it, though. He would leave America in shambles! That's exactly what we need to shock the public into having a revolution of sorts. In order for them to truly realize our political quagmire, they must first be awakened. Once they are ruined by the current establishment, the public will rebel, causing a shift in values. This shift will allow the population to gain a new perspective needed for positive change.

Therefore, I will do my small part and vote for Romney.

I know I sound a little extreme, but Americans need a wake up call. Sometimes, a little destruction is needed, before things can be rebuilt.

Who is with me?

This is a big part of why I voted for Obama last time. If Romney is elected this time my strategy will have been successful.

I know you......from another site. The Let the World Burn guy. CyberC.....??

Do you really think it only sounds a LITTLE extreme to desire "America in shambles" in order to start a "revolution"?

You know, sometimes revolutions just result in the destruction of the country/empire (or the put-down of the revolters), they don't always result in improvement. I can list 9 off the top of my head that didn't end well for a lot of people (including one in Germany!). I can think of 3 off the top of my head that did end well. I think history would teach us that revolution is only to be used as a last resort, and at your own peril, for it often backfires.

If you think the problems in this country are so severe that we need to self destruct first before we can improve, well there probably isn't much one can say to reason with that sort of extremist position.
