The Daily News Online, Presidential endorsement
Presidential endorsement
We’ve reached the point where the bar for an entertainment/news broadcaster is higher than that of a presidential candidate. We were worried the presidential campaign couldn’t get any worse than last Friday, but every day something worse comes out. We know there are readers who will vote for either major party’s nominee no matter how awful they are viewed. We know some will vote for a third party candidate despite the almost nonexistent chance of them winning.
Our hope is that the government will work together to ensure the continuation of our federal republic, no matter who is elected on November 8, and the 45th president of the United States will do what forty-four Presidents before have sworn to and done: ‘preserve, protect and defend the Constitution’. This one job is more important than who is the President. The continuation of our republic is more important than any one person.
We are disappointed beyond measure by this race. A race that has trickled down to local politics. It’s disgusting and we are tired of it.
All we can tell you, our readers, is vote your conscience. We believe the future of our republic depends upon it.
