    I love thick peanut butter sandwiches, but with thickness comes responsibilities and equally important rules. Feel free to abandon the rules but you will end up with a sad sticky example of a great gastronomical institution that could have been something nearly sacrament. No its a bit worse, sitting a bad example of making and/or attempting to eat or serve a half s~assed Peanut-butter samwich' is as bad as watching a real life head-on collision between two Japanese trains! ! Dont do it! please!

    Use three to five tablespoons of premium grade PB, CHECK THE EP date too! The same goes for the bread. Open a new loaf of WHITE bread, dig through it to mid loaf and sneak four pieces out. If you follow those rules you to be worshiped by lesser being such as your and tongue.

    Independent Centrist.
    This is how I classify myself for the time being. I have been registered with both Republican, Democrat and Libertarian and I decided until I find a party that I can stand by I'll just simply classify myself as this.

    The political division is pretty big but I am not certain that this is so 'new'. The Red Scare wasn't that long ago. Just now we have more Huxley like world of information that it may seem all of a sudden this division is new. I just see it as different. Before we could assume that division was alive and well but now I get to see people who have no relevance in my life argue a political point on social media. People are getting what they voted for. When you vote for your bias you create division. It is inescapable. My classifying myself as an Independent Centrist is my attempt for myself to try to be 'better' than the trend. I don't do that too well but I'd rather keep failing and never give a life long commitment to one party over the other until I feel consciously clear to. There is no reason to complain about your government when you vote for a representative to push the country you want to see your country become and then contend with the opposition.

    I also wonder if political division is the ugly side effect of the Senate being voted by popular vote because it is an extension of mob rules. Mob rules with popular vote so the biases will control who gets put into office. This isn't meant to criticize popular vote or how popular vote controls every aspect of who gets elected. It is just something I wonder if it is the ugly side effect of popular vote and the ugly side of the people being in control of who they elect. There doesn't seem to be oversight with corruption of both parties and the media so mix all this stuff together, what else can people expect?

    I really have no clue who I'll vote for in the next Presidential election. At this point for me, it is hard enough to figure local elections let alone the Presidential.
