Do you think that voting for someone
that would harm me is the right thing to do?
Of course not.
But, you know, no, of course not.
I just haven't heard enough about Al Sayed.
I mean, I know he has, like you said, a great heart, you know,
but he hasn't really triggered me enough.
to vote for him, I guess you could say.
Black people in this country has never had the luxury
of being able to really switch between parties.
Let's be clear, when we vote, it's about survival for us.
I'm in favor of Abdul because I want to be out of foreign wars.
Fighting these wars, we're killing people,
tens of thousands of people everywhere.
Let's go to the elephant in the room,
and the elephant in the room...
You know, is for a lot of people, can be Israel.
I could not live with myself to continue
to want my money to go to bomb children.
This election,
more than any other election that I've ever experienced, has caused so
much heartbreak, so many broken friendships.
So I think having conversations like this are important,
you know, in a civil manner
where we're all friends at the end of the day,
you know, but getting your point across
at the same time.
I don't think we're at that point of no return.
I really believe that no matter
who people are supporting this election,
I think the people lament what America has become
in terms of that division.
They want it to go away.
To be totally honest with you,
I'm kind of tired of having these difficult conversations.
I mean, fatigue has set in,
and this is not the America that I think it should be.
