Electing not to vote is no worse than voting if you don't like either candidate.

If someone asked (not forced) you to choose to get raped by a gorilla or a donkey, would you choose?

I have no problem with voting, I have voted in the past (voted in the primaries) and will vote in the future, but trying to vote for the candidate you hate the least is idiotic. The "have to vote" mindset is just another way to keep people under control and happy because they think that they have a say in the government.

by panties in a wad you mean calling him an idiot? I'm HAPPY he is not voting. There are way more liberals out there who do not vote then conservatives, so it benefits me...



And i think an elephant and a donkey would have been a better metaphor, but i hardly think it is relevant at all.



Whether or not you LIKE either candidate, one is going to serve the interest of you and your country better then the other in your mind, and to do nothing is pure stupidity when you are given so much.



In reference to the bolded: That is the dumbest thing i have heard, are you trying to tell me you have a conspiracy theory for voting? I would not doubt it has been tampered with before when on the wire like with the Florida controversy (although i don't think it did, but its not far fetched), but to have that overall opinion about the system is retarded.


This sounds like beating a dead horse with a stick, but go to another country where you don't get to vote; no matter how many times someone can tell you that age old saying, it still rings true.


This apathy is the main problem with America today, voting should always be something you do regardless.
