No matter who wins the election, it behooves us all to remember that politics does not move the world. The realm of politics is but a miniscule portion of life on planet Earth. Politics=this much. The Universe=EVERYTHING.
Politicians do not create, they do not innovate, they do not discover, they do not matter.
What if we gave an election and nobody came?
What would happen if we quit listening to politicians and listened to Beethoven instead?
What if, instead, we gazed at the stars, and wondered if anyone was looking back?
What would happen if we stopped giving politicians our oh-so finite and valuable time? What beautiful works could we create? What inspiring books would we read? What wonderful movies would we watch? What challenging discussions could we engage ourselves in?
What if we refused to allow politicians into our homes via the television, the radio, the internet?
What if they figured out that we don't care?
Would they go away?
Probably not. But we can hope. And we can keep looking up.
