More than just two choices for president, if you are willing to make the choice

Voters are frustrated this election season. Many potential voters are less than enthused about either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump as our next President. Polls show the two to be the most unpopular candidates ever to square off in a race for President. Voters astutely point out that it is frustrating that we have more choices in the yogurt aisle than we have in determining who will lead our country for the next four years. But we do have more choices, if we are willing to make them. In addition to the names Clinton and Trump on Tuesday’s ballot, there are actually five other choices. These are candidates who most haven’t heard of, but who filed the necessary paperwork to get on the ballot. Like Darrel Castle, the nominee of the Constitution Party, a group dedicated to advancing laws that are patterned after God’s laws, as outlined in the Bible. Another choice is Jill Stein of the Green Party which promotes social, economic and environmental justice. Also on the ballot is Monica Moorhead of the Workers World Party, which seeks to abolish capitalism. Gary Johnson represents the Libertarian Party, and he will be a choice for President for local voters. And Rocky de la Fuente heads the American Delta Party, which is focused on exposing the corruption of our political system. So we may not have as many choices for President as we have for yogurt, but we do have more than two flavors to choose from. The question is, if you don’t like the mainstream candidates, can you bring yourself to vote for some other name on the ballot?
