now heres something i dont understand. you hate them both, and yet ill venture to guess you voted for one of them. I'm not ripping on you at all, but this is a VERY common theme I'm seeing.

Now I'm all for voting, but why vote according to popular opinion? What I mean is, there are MANY other choices besides bush or kerry. I don't understand why people think they HAVE to vote democratic or republican.

The opposing argument is any other party will probably never get in office in our lifetime. But does that really matter? Shouldn't one always vote for the candidate whose values are more inline with your own, regardless of if they even have a chance of winning?

...I guess I don't understand the american public.

BTW: I'm voting libertarian. fuck bush and kerry, and the rest of the popular vote.
