Party Time

As I start to organize my life I must finally choose a political party to side with. Although I have often thought there could be nothing more ludicrous and absurd than a decision between one of two viable groups to represent the most powerful force in human history I find I must succumb to the insanity and pick a side.

My initially reaction is to go with the blue team because I prefer blue. Blue is calm and pretty, it seems to represent contemplation and thought over emotion and action. Red is vibrant and intense though. It has this universal quality. It seems to signify more, like it holds more power. Our blood is red, warning signs are in red, intense emotion can be described as red it seems too although I am not sure how or why.

I suppose I must choose based on more than my preference for color though. Whatever side I choose I will find myself in opposition to the other side so perhaps choosing the side I can defend better or opposite the side I can oppose more easily is the best choice.

There is also the constituents to contend with. If I am going to enter politics I will do so by votes. Perhaps I should instead consider the group whose followers I can more easily manipulate and bend to my will. It may be prudent to choose the side with the dumbest followers. If the people who elect me are stupid enough it won't really matter what I say or do because whatever course of action I take I can make it appear to benefit those I represent.

I suppose whatever side I choose I will always do first what is best for me and then make my decisions seem to fall in line with some policy or guideline of the group. I can always claim to be reaching across the aisle for bipartisan support. It would seem like this wouldn't work as this whole thing is organized like a giant super series world game cup bowl and the continuation of the rivalry is paramount to the continued diffusion of any real input by anybody but those who continue to play the game for the benefit of both teams at the cost of everyone and everything.

It may come down to Jesus though. If I take the religious angle I really just need one or maybe two stances that I don't change, everything else will be up for grabs. As long as I call upon our LORD and SAVIOR whenever I have an opportunity I should be FINE.

This will be a difficult decision but mostly for logistical reasons. I can't really see too much difference between the teams. I suppose it will be determined by whoever I can get to support me first. My decisions before, during and after all this will be the same, the only change I may make is the color of my war paint.
