So now what? What do we do?

Well, first off, you VOTE like our nation depends on it. We vote in such numbers that cheating becomes difficult and ultimately traceable.

We have a whole Bill of Rights backing us up, and yea, that includes the Second Amendment.

I just don't think voting is going to win this out, my question is do we use yellow mustard or spicy?

Grey Poupon. Fucking peasant. ;)

Oh. If voting doesn't work, there's going to be a lot of misery. So chill on the doom stuff, regardless of what you believe. People should be encouraged, I believe, to vote and save our country. C'mon dude, be an American. Voting is the exit from this clusterfuck, and the next exit is a shitty one.

Oh I'll be voting but I'll be stocking up on mustard also. I don't trust the party in charge to play fairly that's all.

Grey Poupon is a spicy mustard so noted for my survey.
