   I’ll be there – voting for the one I feel will do the least amount of damage in the next four years!

   A Thought for the Day:
   If you are part of a society that votes, then do so. There may be no candidates and no measures you want to vote for…but there are certain to be ones you want to vote against. In case of doubt, vote against. By this rule you will rarely go wrong. If this is too blind for your taste, consult some well-meaning fool (there is always one around) and ask his advice. Then vote the other way. This enables you to be a good citizen (if such is your wish) without spending the enormous amount of time on it that truly intelligent exercise of the franchise requires.

   psychlady—you are lady after me own heart. But the big question is: Who will fill that bill?

   that’s why I’m voting for who I agree with most, even if it’s third-party (which we should allow as much funds for elections, imo). Jill Stein 2012!

   Popular vote only gets you one that most of the country doesn’t want. Popular vote with instant runoff (vote first, second, etc. choice, the least is dropped and alternates added, until a majority is reached) at least gets you someone the majority can at least stand. As it is now, “It won’t mean a thing if your state cannot swing”, and even there it is non-binding. Jill Stein and the Green Party support IRV, so, since your vote for president is meaningless, vote Green and build a real democracy – the rule of all the people. And be sure and vote for the rest of the offices where your vote really counts.

    I believe it is my duty to vote. To be free to do your duty in your own way is the meaning of ‘duty free’. Now get on that pot and do your duty!

    EVEN IF THE THIRD PARTY MAY HAVE ALL THE RIGHT ANSWERS, VOTING FOR THAT THIRD PARTY MEMBER IS TAKING A VOTE AWAY FROM THE MORE FAVORABLE OF THE LIKELY TWO.

    And that’s my problem… I don’t want to choose the lesser of two evil, I want to vote for a LEADER. :-s
