I'm sure this mostly pertains to only me, but maybe I'm not alone.

First, I'm not trying to pin my political beliefs on anyone in the fed, but since ejection night I've been genuinely out of sync in terms of my dealings with the fed.

I just feel at a loss... Almost spiritually even.

Every time I sit down to write, I find my mind wondering through the halls of old anxieties, and so I do deeply apologize for my lack of substance lately.

I was a Bernie Sanders delegate from Kentucky, and worked hard and with passion to make that man our next president of the United States. He wasn't the perfect candidate, but was honest and channeled his populist message with compassion rather than hatred.

We tried warning the old yellow dog dems that Hillary was a poor candidate, but they wanted nothing from us; we were merely holding up the coronation of thier corrupt savior. We were mysognist niave nuisances in thier eyes...

I watched as a fellow delegate was spit on by a Hillary delegate at the DNC in Philly.
All along we knew she couldn't win and that neoliberalism was going to drag the former "party of the people" down to a irrecoverable state.

Now that's happened, and now the local party wants to be inclusive. I received a call from the local party wanting me to consider running for State House of Representatives as a democratic primary challenger to one of our former governors, Julian Carroll, an 85 year old "liberal" who believes that homosexuality is evil...

They said: "we know you can't win, but we know the party had to change and we need youthful progressive voices like yours to start shifting the party back to the left"

Why should I be the sacrificial lamb for thier fucking mistakes?!?

Ughhh

Either way I'm sorry if I've been a bit off the last week...

Some words of wisdom or advice would be helpful, if not I at least appreciate the freedom to rant here.

That's all...
