My View of the 2016 American Election

I am enjoying the American election news coverage. Such emotion and creative repetoir from both of the parties and their respective flock of supporters and spin-doctors.
The entire professional spectrum of journalism and pseudo-journalism  --from major news outlets to bloggers and vice-versa surprisingly often-- has come out to play and made for an all-day intense and hyped orgy-esque reporting of what,  let's be honest here, is mainly morally minded minutiae .
People are putting a lot of time and effort into their arguments and writings, which is leading to some wonderful pen-person-ship and story-telling.
Truly entertaining and fun to follow.
Such passion in a growing ocean of opinion, fed by melting the iceshelves of fact through the global warming need to be heard, it has flooded and muddied all fact and is now likely impossible for there to be an opinion on the matter that has not yet been voiced.
The outcome of this election is curious indeed because no one can accurately read the future; based upon the sea of information flooding the screens of cellphones, tablets --and the antiquated computer screen in some ancient-backwood offices -- November is certain to be remembered as a pivotal moment of the 21st century.
This truly is an exciting moment of history to be a part of, whether on the bandwagon of Left vs Right or as voiceless observer moved to tears of frustration or the urge to eat popcorn and enjoy the show, whatever the case, this is turning out to be quite the binge-watch.
Netflix has nothing on this trip.
