Do You Vote?

THAT'S what I think too.

Well that was anti-climatic, not enough arguing 'tall.

I'm so pleased to see such a spirited debate over this issue. And I'm happy that you are all so passionate about your voting right/privilege/duty.

I now challenge all of you...

Ask your friends if they vote...challenge them to vote.

It doesn't matter what their political affiliation is, what matters is that they vote, that they take the very small amount of time out of their lives to simply read up on the issues and make a semi-informed decision.

If politicians see that people actually feel like the majority of the population is voting, they might just start thinking about the citizens as their constituency instead of only listening to the special interests.

Spread the word!

VOTE!!!!!

No, I don't vote.

For the simple reason that my opinion, as a voter, doesn't count. And I refuse to go by popularity or ballot or polls...because then I would be walking with the crowd, not as a separate identity.

I hope you don't complain about any certain politician then. ;)

Nope.

Even if they win, they dont run the country anyway. Congress runs it, and their priority is their pockets. Look whats been happening the past 10 years or so.:rolleyes:

It's been a LOT more than 10 years but I guess that's why I vote. The small hope that the people I vote for, the people who I think will run the country instead of whoring it out to the highest bidder, is enough to keep me at the polls.

Libertarians HAVE to vote just to keep the party on the ballot. I'd vote for the freaking communist party if I thought I could help to shake up our government's supremacist complacency.
