Topic: Political Literature
Learning to Evolve. Evolving to Criticize

A chance to discuss my desire to write/inform about what are probably the most important issues EVER.

Saturday, December 22, 2007

So, I did it. I don't know why I would be afraid to publish my thoughts about the issues which I am concerned.

I leave dozens of comments daily on other sites. However, I do not have the responsibility of publishing under my own name. Nor do I have to suffer the consequences. Nothing is quite like having people judging you on your content versus the same people generally ignoring your comment.

My first blog took about 5 edits to get all the links correct. They kept blocking out other words. I suppose I will figure it out over time. Until then, I am quite sure people will call me all sorts of names. Oh well, I guess that is the price that I must pay for my fame.

Is it worth it? Sure it is, if I can improve my writing through constructive criticism. It will definitly be worth it if I am able to convey my opinion in a thoughtful manner that causes people to think.

My biggest fear is that people won't understand my position because I don't do a good job of presenting my argument. I suppose that is the reason for the edit button.

Over the next several articles, I will focus on the Presidential Elections. You will find out that I am a "Paultard" or "Paulite". It doesn't matter which moniker you label me, I will not change my mind about my unwavering support for Dr. Ron Paul. I have done too much research to believe that there has been another candidate in this century that has had  the character that Ron Paul possessess.

Bring it on. Give it to me. Just be nice because I might figure all this out and someday repay the Karma.

(one day later)

I am now updating this to say I must have edited my first article, Canadians are Better than Americans, 20+ times. How many silly mistakes do I have to make before I get it right?

Dude. The thing of it is, if you are going to involve people in your words, they need to be well thought out and gramatically reasonable.

 

That said, welcome to the world of self-publishing.

 

Take a deep breath. Relax. Think. Assemble a wonderful column. Remember, the smarter you come across, the more people will listen.

Thanks Scott. Math is really my strong suit, not writing. I have a lot to say, but sometimes it comes out a little jumbled. It's a lot more complicated than I first thought.

  It is fine advice, Relax, Think and Assemble.

Should I have used a semi-colon?
