Dear World,
A ten episode documentary that was filmed over ten years is available to watch on Netflix. Making A Murderer got my head absolutely crazy. In my opinion, and I think hundreds of thousands of other people's opinions, both Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey are innocent.
Steven Avery is a simple man and his nephew Brendan is obviously mentally challenged. I don't even know where to begin... There is just way too much evidence that proves Avery's innocence. And there happens to be quite a bit of evidence pointing to a corrupt police system in Manitowac County, Wisconsin. I hope the truth comes out and that those bastards serve their time.
Steven Avery already served 18 years for a crime he didn't commit. Now he's in for life for another crime he didn't commit. Holy Moly. That means the killer(s) are still out there. And they're most likely wearing badges. I am infuriated by this case and can't seem to stop thinking about it. Everything that has happened to this innocent man shows American citizens that nobody (whether innocent or guilty) is safe in our judicial system.
Sincerely,
Pissed Off

...more Bernie.
I feel like all I ever talk about anymore is Bernie Sanders. I'm so hopeful for his candidacy, and yet I lose hope every day. I like that old guy so much.... I just want him to win! So far I have put in 3 hours of phone banking and 3 hours of canvassing. I have made my political views pretty public through social media this year and I have not heard a peep out of my parents-- one of whom reads this blog from time to time. Look, nobody should have to choose whether they are democrat or republican. However, the way our government is set up makes us vote either one way or another.
Why I love Bernie so much? I have voted Republican 4 elections in a row because I thought the lead candidates were alright. This time I'm incredibly passionate about a candidate and they happen to be running under the Democratic umbrella. Not all democrats are the same-- that is why we have multiple candidates. And not all Republicans are the same-- that is why we have a million of them running this year. Everyone has different views on different subjects.
So please, don't label me. I'm voting in favor of someone's policies and character. I'm not voting in favor of a "club" or a "party." I've never met a person who agrees 100% with all Republican or all Democratic viewpoints. It's not a thing, so don't make it a thing. Just do your homework and vote for the policies that you agree with. That is it.

#FeelTheBern
Dear friends, I have voted in every presidential election since I was 18 years old. Four elections total. This year will be number 5. I have never felt like my vote makes a difference, and I absolutely hate that our options get cut down to two choices. Every election I have voted for the candidate whom seems to be "the lesser of two evils." However, this year I am hopeful. There are currently 15 candidates running for President, one of whom I feel is running for We The People.
I don't identify with being a Democrat, a Republican, or a Liberal. I identify with candidates and their viewpoints. I will not tell you how to cast your vote. But friends, DON'T GIVE AWAY YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE! I am one small voice, but together we can be heard. It’s time for a revolution. A political revolution. An economic revolution. A fair fight. We can really make a difference this year, in this election. Let's change history and ensure ourselves and future generations a better life! America can and will be great again.
Arizonans-- we are a closed primary state. This means that you must be registered to vote by February 22nd if you want to vote in the Primaries on March 22nd. The Primary Election is actually more important than the General Election. Each political party is allowed only one candidate in the presidential election. Therefore, the primary election is the means to determine the party's one official presidential candidate. So when you register to vote in Arizona, don't be cool and register as an "Independent" because you won't be allowed to vote for anybody. Independents are still unable to vote in the Arizona Primaries, besides, there are no candidates running under the Independent umbrella this year. For example: If you want to vote for Bernie Sanders, you must be registered as a Democrat. If you are supporting one of the Republicans, then register as such.
So if you need to register to vote or update your party affiliation, go to servicearizona.com. Choose Voter Registration. Then choose Begin Voter Registration.
If you're wondering who I'm voting for, it should be obvious by now. So far I have watched every Republican debate and every Democratic debate. I have read through all of the top candidates websites and I understand their standpoints on different issues. I feel more passionate about this election than any other because now is the time that our country needs the strongest leader. And that is why I am voting for Bernie Sanders.
