    all I want to say is, read Ron Paul's new book and then see who you want to vote for.

    I'm against about every policy Ron Paul has. He's anti-choice, he's anti-welfare, he's anti- post office.

    He wants to issue letters of marque against terrorists. He's actually suggesting the US hire pirates.

    No. Ron Pauls an insane disestablishment paleoconservative .

    He wants to revert the country to the good old days of the 1890's. He has no progressive policies in rearguards to taxation.

    A terrible choice for any liberal.

    I agree, you have the right not to vote. I wouldn't have voted in any election you've had here until this one...

    But you did miss out on a key point I made:

    "People who do not vote on local issues that affect them are idiots."

    Per example: If you smoke the ganja, and there's a marijuana descrimination bill on the local ballot, and you don't go out to vote for it... then you're an idiot.

    I think you see where I'm going with this.

    His newsletter have a long history of holocaust denial, homophobia, and praising the confederacy.

    All of his policies would amount to taking funds away from social services.

    Ron Pauls a moron.

    Yeah, there's no way I'm giving up my warm weather in exchange for a slightly more liberal government.

    Let's say you vote and the person you choose turns out to be horrible and fucks up, that makes YOU the EVEN BIGGER idiot for voting for them...

    And you want your freedom of expression and freedom of speech and don't want people invading your personal choices, but yet here you are trying to tell me I am wrong for not voting and what I should do and invading my personal choice..

    Same here.

    Lode: you want something to brag about in terms of how black people in this country are treated?

    Vote for people who support productive, unionized jobs and stimulation of industry. Like Kucinich.

    A consumer economy and a black president is worse for blacks than a productive economy and a white president.

    Something deep inside tells me that Lode was kidding.

    Something also tells me that a vote for Kucinich would be a waste in this election, even though he's practically a perfect candidate.

    Right. That would be the lesser of two evils philosophy. I can see how far it's gotten us.
