Let's talk about politics. 


I've been planning this post for a couple of months now, and I am finally ready with part 1. I'm starting with US  politics, I'll be making a post on BC & Canadian politics in a few weeks. You may wonder why I am concerned about & interested in American politics, me being Canadian. Well, the US is our closest neighbour & one of our biggest trading partners. Also, my paternal grandfather was born in Minnesota, immigrating to Canada when he was a young man. So I do have family in the US & my husband is American. 






And can anyone tell me why these brilliant guys didn't do a song for Trump? If they did, I haven't been able to find it yet. 



UPDATE: Due to some recent health issues, I did not do a political post before the BC election. But we got lucky & the NDP won, although as one journalist called it, it was spandex-tight.

Here's a few news articles, on the upcoming US election:

Bill Maher spoke directly to undecided voters, or as he calls them, “the Christmas Eve shoppers of politics,” on the latest episode of Real Time.

Jimmy KImmel: “Most elections are about policy. This one is not. This is about sanity and security and democracy.”
