Bert Prelutsky reviews the Academy Award Nominees. He comes close to asking what if none of these are worth an Academy Award? Indeed there is an ethical question worth posing. No question about it, some years we have a great crop of movies, 1939 comes to mind when the Wizard of "Oz competed with Gone with the Wind. Other movies quickly come to mind like Patton. But, what if we have a crop of mediocrity? The last few years movies have won that not only I but no one else bothered to see. does anyone ever say, na, this stuff just does not measure up.
Libertarians have proposed that voters be given an additional choice on the ballot, none of the above. If the voters reject everyone running and None wins, we start over and the previous candidates are excluded. Gee sounds gtood to me. We are starting to look like a French Monarchy on the national ballot in this country, what with Clinton, Bush, Dole always on the ballot, apparently in 2010 we get to pick from Hutchison and Perry for governonr, each has been there long enough to accumulate cowebs around them, what say you, shouldn't we be allowed to
Just say No!
