I think the election and campaigning system has several broken parts that most Americans would like to see fixed. But it is the only game in town and I still consider voting a privilege. The controversial issues and candidates have involved maybe a record number of citizens in an education and selection process, which I think is basically good. Yes, I'll be glad the hub-bub over, but have some regrets over campaign ads being replaced with Christmas marketing. I don't know which I like the least.
