US Voting Age Should Be 25
Recent events have shown that the ability to make rational and logical choices; may be left to those who are a little older. Riots and outrageous criminal acts are at an all-time high, and mostly being committed by those who are in their 20’s or younger. Now, to be clear; I’m not saying that every person below the age of 25 is incapable of making smart choices or behaving like an adult.

Could Congress Choose the President?
There have been some suggestions that because Donald Trump is likely to lose the popular vote by an even larger margin than he did in 2016, and may lose the electoral college as well, that his attorneys may play out the clock and deliberately postpone things in enough states so that no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes and the election is thrown into the House of Representatives.

Black Lives Matter, Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter
At this point, I would say I have watched maybe 100 hours of livestreams and video from the various protests that have been happening across the US (and sometimes in other countries, like my native Canada). After all, A&E's Live PD is cancelled and this is kind of the next best thing.

A Confusing Time
We are a generation that has already faced so much. There are those who are preyed upon for their race, gender, sexual orientation, the characteristics these individuals were born with. How do we say to someone that they are less than, that they are not normal, that they are destined to be hated and scolded for plainly being who they are?

When Does The Coronavirus "End" And Everything Returns To Normal?
The coronavirus pandemic is hitting virtually everyone. There are almost no places on the face of the earth where there are no cases, and if there are, it is probably by deliberate omission of governments as is the case in North Korea and Venezuela.

Let's Help Make Black Lives Matter MATTER
"Walking between the pools of light cast by the street lights, some of them broken, I saw the group of them from a block away, just hanging out, joking and jostling each other. In a dark patch I crossed the street just to be on the safe side. One of them noticed and they all stopped and stared, their heads rising like wolves testing the breeze for the scent of potential prey. The tallest one said something and two of them broke from the pack and meandered across to my side of the road, one putting a hand to the small of his back, the other digging one deep into a pocket."

Why this year's presidential election is unlike any other
What makes America unique? Is it our diversity? Is it the constitution? Is it economic opportunity? It is, and always will be the underlying belief that everyone, everywhere, deserves to be FREE from tyranny.

My 2024 Presidential Bid continued
As you know by now and if you don’t please read my last 2 stories about my 2024 President, I am running for President in 2024 and every 4 years after that. Yes, this is a joke, but I will take my duties seriously if elected. At least I have a degree in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, and understand science, evidence and much more. I have no money to run and you need money sadly, which is why we have bad politicians. You can also watch my Presidential videos on my YouTube channel. Let’s get this party started.
