3. Maybe this is the missing link to our immigrants who have now become US citizens.

Sometimes a vote is made to make certain the guy who wants to kill you doesn’t get into office! Sometimes you plug your nose and vote for the better of two evils. It’s not a perfect system. But when placing a vote do the least harm to yourself and others. Also, the country you came from will not always seem to be first priority in US relations because as the melting pot we have many many complicated alliances to try and hold this crazy world together. Don’t take it personally. Very few voters get exactly what they want in any election. It’s the way it is. Work to help change the system. And by all means remember…Nazi equals very, very bad!
