    Same here, I guess. I respect the people, but not the vote.
    Then again, they're entitled to it. So, yeah, it's more fucked-up than ever!

    I should clarify to say I wouldn't respect the decision to avoid choosing between the only two people who could be the next president.

    I was as angry as anyone at people who voted for Nader in 2000. But, like Gore then, Clinton has to earn the votes. I believe she has, and is the most qualified candidate. But I can only control my own vote.

    Sure, that's her job, but it's still dumb to throw away your vote when there's such a clear distinction between the two people who could end up running the country the next four years.

    There's a clear distinction between a kick in the face and a kick in the stomach, doesn't mean I have to choose between them.

    It's a wasted vote in pretty much every election. Perot was the last one with a chance.

    You don't have to do anything, but that wouldn't make voting third party any less dumb.

    So we are locked into only voting for the two major parties? We can never do anything different? Go fuck yourself.

    Do what you want dumbass. Just don't expect me not to think or say it's a dumbass decision.

    Ask her Secret Service agents. I also hear Vince Foster changed his mind but didn't get the chance to tell anyone.

    Your position is dumber than old tony posting a two month old poll. Why shouldn't I vote for the candidate that best reflects my political views?

    It's a strange place we're in, because I suspect that Gary Johnson would win a Trump-Johnson one-on-one election.
