    they're already rich, so who gives a shit? what's she going to do, vote for the other major party instead? or how about the greens or democrats; which are never going to win anyway? the problem isn't non-voters, the problem is yuppies.

    Bloody hell, you can reason whatever you want from what i say (even if it's not what i said) I choose not to vote until i believe there is a good candidate to vote for. Usually, that's why you vote?

    good, because the subject isn't worth debating anyway. the system is screwed, and has always been screwed; and sooner or later, it's going to destroy itself.

    actually one of the reasons bush won is because voting is not compulsurary in america, and ALL the right wingers vote whereas not all the left wingers vote, nor all the poorer people who get shat on by right wing govts

    No. Bush won because Americans are dickheads who thought Gore was a no personality wimp. They also liked his "daddy". I think it's almost funny that the yanks are wingeing now. They can lump him but unforuntely, 5000 American soldiers/families/sets of friends, are paying the price of an ignorant nation. I ask you, would you have voted for Bush? Gore might not have had much experience but there was always something about Bush.

    1: Don't call me a prick you ignorant jerk.

    2: I didn't say Bush got more votes, i said he won. I was referring to the Americans that voted for him as the dickheads.

    No i didn't. I said they thought Gore had no personality and was a wimp, he had less experience than Bush. Where did i use the words, "Gore lost because he had less votes" Nowhere. What are you three years old?

    I can say whatever i want.


    Plus, we were talking voting, this equals elections, this equals who runs in them. Hmmm, big stretch there Einstein. Maybe we were talking about it.

    Get a view why don't ya.
