Why am I doing this blog?

Well, I've decided to start a blog. A bit tongue in cheek really but being the opinionated guy that I am, I thought it would be entertaining to many people.
The funniest thing about this blog is that the title would suggest that you should vote 'Dave for Prime Minister' but I'm not even able to cast a vote myself, so I'm sure I can't be voted in!
That won't stop me putting my crazy ideas out there though...
So, if I was to run for Prime Minister, why should you vote for me?
Firstly, I'm what most people would call 'politically incorrect'. I don't agree with that. I would say that I'm up front, in your face but truthful! You know when kids say things that are the truth but sometimes a little embarrassing? Well that's me and I'm now 41.
I look at the current crop of Australian politicians and wonder how they got there? Lets be honest, neither of the 2 major party leaders, being Julia Gillard & Tony Abbot have the charisma (or nous by the seems) to lead people, let alone lead them in the right direction. Tony Abbot would be my preference of the 2 though.

My real preference would be to see John Key, the New Zealand Prime Minister take over Australia too as he's actually got a clue when it comes to running business and leading people! All you Aussies can settle down, i'm not suggesting we become one country with New Zealand (Although it would benefit NZ greatly to become a state of Australia) but he just happens to be a good leader that is out and about right now.

My own political allegiance is often seen as warped. I don't have a preference for any party as such but I do prefer (given the limited choice) the policies of Nat Lib Coalition. I'm definitely a capitalist but I do have a social conscience. I see great merits Communism but for the fact that we're all greedy and can't be trusted, plus I don't want to prop up lazy buggers that can't be bothered putting in a good days work!
The US parliamentary system seems one of the most screwed up of them all though, with massive over regulation that holds everything up, and the dumb shits don't seem to see that they are actually holding their own country back. I guess they're too far down the track to chance their system now though????

Anyway, that gives you a little insight into me and my rantings. I'll come back with some more pointed views on a regular basis, so keep an eye out!

Dave for PM
