Why do you think that the 'Powers That Be' would accept any percentage of chance regarding the leadership of this nation?
My follow up is this:
Why is it then relevant to place a vote for one of two individuals likley conditioned and prepped for the role of such a vaunted position?

We've had years of conspiracy talk and complaints regarding the current administration as a result so it makes me wonder...why wouldn't people go vote?
If everything was so fixed, then war will continue and things will be more or less that same. Bush created the perfect Utopia for "them" right? Now here's a chance to change that and people can't be bothered to step up and try?

For those that say they are not voting "to protest" a rigged system and they are 100% sure it's rigged...I still don't get it.

By just note voting, you are playing into their plan... They don't want us to vote, they HATE that we are still a semi-free nation... But, our RIGHT to vote is the Mechinism that DRIVES our society.

And I want to thank you for making me think about the phrase "civic duty," and how it yet again dichotomizes us into "those who do" and "those who don't."

If you didn't vote, then don't complain. Ballots have a space where you can "write in" anyone you choose so you don't have to pick the lesser of the two evils.
