My political party is Civility. "Civility is the practice of good manners in both speech and behavior." After watching the first presidential debate I have felt a sadness for the country that I love. How could these two options be our only options? Why do I feel so hopeless? After a healthy civil discussion with family with varying opinions, I was finally able to pinpoint why I felt so down. By the time Arizona was able to vote in the presidential primaries all candidates (except for two) had left the race from both leading political parties. There is no reason that one state (I'm looking at you Iowa) gets to lead out every year since the early 70's. How about instead of 16 lucky states that get to vote on Super Tuesday we all vote on Super Tuesday?! Candidates can "visit" each state through TV, Radio, and the internet. I need an Elizabeth McCord plot twist on this upcoming election or The Rock to run with "more poise and less noise." I wouldn't even want Arizona to vote first, we all should get to vote on the same day, its only civil.
