Again, and for the same reasons stated to Bill Anderson earlier, BULL SHIT! This has a lot to do with individual contracts made in the voting booth. Union 'representation' is often forced and cohereced as well, so there are NO legally binding contracts made. I was forced into such an arrangement when I worked as a teenager at Safeway Store in Oregon. I am not that naive today. I either joined the 'union', or I forfeited my job! So, how does THAT comprise a legitimate contract between my best wishes and the results of the Union's demands in any case? It doesn't. As far as I know, the voting booth isn't 'unionized'. I choose who will represent me. Sometimes I lose, sometimes I don't win. Sometimes I do win. I don't have any moral responsibility to support the winner of a race in which I voted against, and indeed strongly opposed. Sorry, this isn't something that I will allow you to call on my own behalf. This is my vote. It doesn't belong to you, or Bill Anderson. And I have an option to support the winner if I choose to, but must in this case, certain will not! In this process, I want to make this clear, I am NOT obligated to be represented by a candidate who does NOT support my interests or my vote. Stop twisting this into the wind. Come on! Give me a break. To put this into colloquial language, do YOU really believe these fuckers that I strongly opposed and voted against REPRESENT ME!? Am I therefore obligated to support their representation of ME? No. I don't think so! Not going to happen! THIS GOVERNMENT DOES NOT REPRESENT ANYTHING WHATSOEVER in what I support or would possibly even consider supporting. Why don't you, and Bill, get together and concoct another scheme that might suggest that I have any responsibility to support this nebulous idea of false representation?
