5. Hope is frosting on shit
I don't know why so many people advocate it. I'd rather people advocate HAVE than HOPE. I mean, really, are we a nation of imbeciles?

6. I'd prefer a candidate who's prepared to be honest about the issues
And willing to fight, instead of calling for a round of Kumbaya.

But that's just me.
