Okay, I know, abortion is a hot topic and I don’t really want to get into all that here. I just want to talk about my reasons for refusing to vote for someone based on their views on abortion.

1. Abortion is legal. The supreme court ruled that it is legal and that is what it has been for over 30 years. No matter what my beliefs on the issue are, in our law books, it is legal.

2. No president since Roe V. Wade has been able to make abortion illegal.

3. Both parties have turned it into a game to garner more votes. If you are pro-life you must vote for a Republican, and if you are pro-choice you have to vote for the Democrat. They have essential narrowed every election down to this ONE issue. I refuse to play that game.

There was a time where I based all my voting decisions on what the candidate’s stance on abortion was. Well, that got me nowhere. So, this time I am voting based on the million other issues that matter. Like our national security, emergency preparedness and aide, health care, our collapsing economy, and education.
