Politics

Look at earth from outer space
Everyone must find a place
Give me time and give me space
Give me real, don't give me fake

Coldplay - Politics

Do you recognize the person on the picture? No!? Well it´s me! It´s always about me (here) ;) No seriously. Elections are coming up so I did this questionnaire smartvote.ch some days ago and the result you can see above.
Here are some figures from this questionnaire: The maximum match I got with an candidate was 73.3%. The worst 39.4%. I can elect 26 persons for Nationalrat (with 400 candidates). From those 26 there would be 9 women. Average age of the wanna-be´s I should elect would be 33!! And the party I should support is JF or FDP... And my godfather is in one of the top positions! I´m glad we have a 65.2% match and I can elect him because of rational aspects :))) And what´s interesting as well is: First person of my really, really, really favourite party, the SVP, UDC idée suisse ;) is around position 100. And I´m wondering why this guy is on the J-SVP (young) list with an age of 40! I mean other parties have people on their regular list with an age of 21! Anyway, that´s just the figures! It´s a good indicator but I won´t elect according to this list only...
And while I was jogging today I thought that the following song suits the topic quite well :)

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to be genuine was harder than it seemed
But somehow I got caught up in between

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to be someone else was harder than it seemed
And somehow I got caught up in between

Between my pride and my promise
Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way
And things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to regain your trust was harder than it seemed
But somehow I got caught up in between

Between my pride and my promise
Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none

And I cannot explain to you
And anything I say or do or plan
Fear is not afraid of you
But guilt's a language you can understand
I cannot explain to you
And anything I say or do
I hope the actions speak the words they can

For my pride and my promise
For my lies and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse is

Pride and my promise
Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none
