#20, I will vote for neither. I refuse to vote for the lesser of two evils. I refuse to vote against someone. I’ll vote my conscience.
There are ALWAYS more than two choices. Try not to think so two dimensionally.
This is how we’ve gotten to where we are now — people thinking we only have two choices and vote against the other guy, not bothering to look at the one they ARE voting for.
#23 Ok don’t vote then (that is essentially what you are choosing to do). If your going to chose not to vote then at least try not to criticize others who are prepared to make the tougher choices.
#24 The effectiveness of a primary system is directly related to the involvement of the populace. If only 4% of all people in the U.S. Choose to follow and vote in the primary then those 4% get to decide. If you want to sit on the side and complain about the teams that’s fine. You should understand though that if you don’t suit up and get on the field it won’t matter how loud you yell from the stands. As for your comdenarion of religion that’s your own buisness and has little to do with this discussion.
What people fail to grasp is that we have the problems we have now because we have left politics to the politicians and assumed that their friends in the media would act as our broker and not theirs. If we choose not to praticipate in our represenitive form of goverment then we get the goverment we deserve. The people still hold power in this country, but not for long if they collectively choose to sit idly by and complain while everyone involved screws us over.
It’s much easier to yell about the problems than it is to take the action nessicary to fix them.

Don’t be silly. Photoshop a photo of O’Bama and you’re a racist. Do a Republican and you’re a patriot.

Good for you. Throw your vote away. Sure, you could write in any name you wish. In the two party system that’s the same as not voting. Worse, it means you are not voting for someone who could win thus helping to elect the other person.
Liberty Lover? I’m guessing you are a sailor who loves three day passes.

You guys are funny.
You want me to NOT criticize you for throwing your vote away on an inept moran?
Why should anyone vote for a presidential candidate that talked about seceding his state from the Union? We’re voting for the president of the United States, not the Confederate States of America.
Hmmmmm. Just like Hitler. Save us from the evangelicals who think compromise is a sin.
VOTE ALL “NO NEW TAXES” POLITICIANS OUT OF OFFICE. DENY OFFICE TO ALL “NO NEW TAXES” CANDIDATES. They are all little Hitlers.
Please! Be a little intellectually honest here. The Nazis were socialists. Liberals / Progressives are much closer to Nazis than any Conservative.
Whether you support a progressive income tax, redistribution of wealth, entitlement programs, etc. It all falls under socialism.
On the issues, Obama is closer to Hitler / the Nazis by a landslide than Perry or Bush Jr. ever were / are.
Thanks to our great public education system (and teachers unions), you have too many public-educated Americans that don’t understand what the Nazi party was about. Liberals use it as an ad hominem attack against Conservatives / Libertarians (while ignoring they themselves are the closest thing to a Nazi).
So John, we know you don’t like Perry (for good reason).
So, who do you like?
[Ron Paul -- JCD]

#20–Jag==why should anyone “have faith” in the primary system that shows time and time again it perverts a general election process?
But that is what having faith is all about. Reality tells us reality–keeping the faith says to pick the opposite.
Rick Perry = religious loon
Keeping the faith = religious loon
No need to guess.
Reality = Two Party system
Reality = Voting for preferred third party candidate will often put the worst of two candidates into office.
Realtiy = something dogmatic people don’t deal with.

P.S. Dvorak – Sorry, you’re wrong. Nobody HAD to do it.
Ah_yea, my sites up! Dont scare me like that!
Actually, voting for *anyone* who is not the current office holder is exactly how Nazi Germany started. Exactly!
He’s a Bilderberg (Manchurian) Candidate.
The whole “Hitler” bit is redundant.
He will be a mass-murderer just like the current guy.
Lest you think that is over the top, the Libya deal, if not a legitimate war must be mass-murder.
And you can just bet that any of the Theocons will escalate the – let’s face it – war with Iran.
If you want to see an end to perpetual war for perpetual profit, Ron Paul is the only game in town.

Actually, I liked the 96 hour liberties.

Glad I could clear that up for ya.

23, Liberty Lover,
And what were the consequences of those who voted for Ross Perot?
25, Bobbo,
Worked for Bill Clinton.
#37, And what were the consequences of those who voted for Ross Perot?
That is your reason for voting against someone else?
There’s a fable about a dog and bone and creek. I suggest you guys read it.
Vote anybody but Obama!
I honestly don’t think the country can take four more years of that narcissistic ass. He is already in full time campaign mode.
38, Liberty Lover,
That is my citing a historical reference. Are you saying Bill Clinton would have beaten Bush Sr. without Perot concurrently running?
I agree that there is always more than 2 choices. The question is the way you vote strategic or symbolic when confronted with more than 2 choices?
