Or if you are note voting period, why not?, and what would make you want to vote? This is primarily for registered voters to reply
The reason I won't be voting in November is because I really don't believe in the current two-party system. I think this country has become a place
where people want money, power, love, and anything else which is considered by the average citizen to make one feel very good. Rational thought and
theory seem to be non-existant in many circles. I.e... my mom and dad always voted republican so that's how I vote. The flip-side of that are super
liberal types who grew up in a republican household. Usually some other underlying issue causes them to be angry with one more of the parents so
retaliate by going polar opposite on the political spectrum (from their parents/guardians). Or even scarier are people who won't vote for someone
based off their skin color, gender, religious values etc.
Given the vast amount of people who formulate decisions based on what I perceive to be nonsense and the fact that I'm one in 100 million people
(voters), I find it pointless to pencil in "option A or option B." I believe people do that to make themselves "feel good" about exercising their
perceived freedom. But that doesn't mean I don't like political discussions and hearing other peoples beliefs and concerns.
Believe me... I live in Washington State which will definitely going to Obama so it wouldn't matter how I voted. If anything I might jump back on
the democracy bandwagon to help elect local leaders who would have more impact on my everyday life.
