Minnesota and Ron Paul

OK, now there is a three way tie for first

McCain in last place, lol
 
I live in anoka county... I was just at an elementary school where people were talking... I'm so exhausted I couldn't really understand them... I was parked illegally, because I thought I could get in and vote. I thought there was going to be a line that led to a voting booth. There was not. There were rooms with people talking. I walked in one. No idea if it was the right one. More talking. No idea what they're saying. I'm bright red out of embarrassment because I don't know what I'm doing there. A lady asks who people are supporting. No other Ron Paul supporters that I could see. None. I left.

MN is a caucus. You didn't look into the system before you showed up? Way to represent. :rolleyes:

Yeah I'm a failure. Because I didn't know anything about the system, I was supposed to know that in order to 'vote' as I had in the past, I would have to learn algebra, tap dancing, and how to juggle knives. I don't have enough time or energy to pick up a night class on "how to vote". I understanding voting to be as simple as filling in a circle with a black marker. That's what I expected to do tonight.

Are you serious and are you retarded?! How could you make the effort to go there and then not vote and just leave after all this run-up?!
 
I really don't deserve whatever freedom hasn't been taken from us. I didn't come through for Ron Paul tonight. My life has been extremely rough, and I've been pretty depressed most of my life. I should want the change he offers. Maybe I'm discouraged. Maybe I never cared. I don't know what's going on anymore... Earlier today I thought to myself, "National healthcare wouldn't be so bad... maybe I could get my tooth fixed?" because the job I have doesn't offer insurance. I can't go back to school because my credit is fucked. The bastards call 20 times a day. I honestly don't know how I feel anymore about any of this. I've had it rough since day one, I've never been able to stop and think and evaluate with a healthy, stable mindset, where I'm going, what I have, what I don't have, and what I want. I'm sorry to everyone I dissapointed by not voting. I left so I would have gotten enough sleep to keep my job tomorrow. If I got fired from this one I would probably end my life.

I think my problem is I have avoided any external pressure all my life because I have been under a tremendous amount of internal pressure. You'd have to be one tough mother fucker to have lived 26 years in the life I've had. I'd take the life of almost ANY other American citizen over mine. I know people who were raped as children who are happier than I am.

I honestly don't know why I'm still here. I wish my dad would have taken me with him.

Even the strongest of men occasionally need a pick me up.

Hang in there, Matthew Zak.
 
I'm sorry to hear that Matthew. I appreciate your candor and empathize with your situation. It is difficult enough just to function in times like these, especially if you do not have support from good friends and family. I get the impression you are relatively young. Keep your chin up brother, don't let yourself get to caught up in the world. I'm sure it was very intimidating to show up at that caucus, not knowing anyone and having no concept of how it worked and then just leaving because of not even knowing if you were at the right place and embarrassed to ask a stranger a question that you think might cause that person to think less of you. Your post leads me to believe you have a good heart and want to do the right thing but you are shy, and have a fragile sense of self-esteem. I for one do not think less of you. I consider it a victory that you showed up to stand for freedom, and I say it is a failure of local grassroots leadership that you were not able to participate due to a lack of presence that made you feel you were alone in the fight. Your a good man Matthew, do what you have to in order to support yourself and keep a roof over your head, and as I said earlier do not let yourself get caught up in the world, it is by and large meaningless and a poor representation of what is important in life.
