white-tailed eagle clash

white tailed eaglesAntoni Kasprzak snapped this amazing picture of two white-tailed eagles locked in a heated debate over which presidential candidate would be best for folks who earn less than 250 thousand dollars per year.

I feel like our current system of electing a president is broken and needs to be fixed. How can we call ourselves a true democracy when both parties go to extraordinary efforts to effectively silence any and all third party candidates from participating in the debates and getting any substantial media coverage?

With that said I think it's obvious to most people that tomorrow will be more of a multiple choice question than a real honest to goodness election.

  1. 4 more years of the country going down the same path we've been on these last 8 years.

  2. 4 new years on a slightly different path with a politicians promise of hope and change.
