Political campaign rhetoric aside, it is time for the voters to pick up their pens and pencils to mark their ballots.
It must be remembered that while the president has much power in their own right of office, it is Congress that rules and has final say. It must be decided which presidential candidate has the vision, stamina, fortitude and drive to fulfill the arduous tasks ahead of them.
It is a history proven that the president — at any moment, hour, day, week or year after they take the oath of office — can become too incapacitated to serve out their term or die in office. It must be decided which V.P. candidate has the best strategies and game plans, and is most capable of catching the ball and reaching the goalposts with the least fumbles, stumbles and being tackled down.
A voter’s decision is not just for four years but perhaps unto the third and fourth generations.
