30. I do kinda regret the feeling I had that the People really had the power...
I mean, I remember when the tears came to my eyes when I walked up to that voting both and discovered that I could still do this in my country and vote for who I wanted to be in there.

and thankfully, I lot of other people felt the same way and we won.

Now, however, the welling up of my eyes comes from the stark realization that I guess it doesn't really matter who we put up there. The results are still the same.
