First of all, I consider myself a very open-minded person. I'm not a member of any party, and I'm able to see different sides of an issue, even if I don't agree with them.

But I was absolutely unable to stomach the Republican convention this year. The slogan - "America First"! The chanting "USA USA!" -- the implication that if you don't agree with us, you're not patriotic! Yes, I know it's nothing new and I should be more cynical -- but in this election, between two intelligent candidates with very different positions, I expected more focusing on issues, less of this divisive jingoistic idiocy. Pass the barf bag.
