Better choices

Well, it’s over. We got “the lesser of two evils.” Or did we? We’ll never know.

Can’t an election like this be prevented from happening again? Must we always be presented with a choice of two deeply flawed candidates?

Perhaps the two major parties have learned a lesson. Perhaps we need a third party.

Is it too early to be thinking about 2020? How about presenting the American people with a choice of “the better of two goods.”

John Goehl,
