Political unrest inside myself and others who love the Constitution. Wanna know the answer?

Question by Homersapian: Political unrest inside myself and others who love the Constitution. Wanna know the answer?
The answer to all the political unrest is quite simple; you have to ignore politics. What will be will be. I have spent a full day away from the Internet and from news in general. WOW, what peace there is to be found by just ignoring reality.

I don’t care if you agree or disagree as my life has been PURE and utter HELL when I plug into this Matrix. So, I am unplugging and I am going to relive yesterday for as many days as there are for me.

I wish you all well. Best of luck. And yes, I am voting for Ron Paul. I really want the US Constitution to survive.

Your comments are welcomed and I will pick a best answer.
