Will you vote for Gary Johnson or write in Ron Paul in November? , page

The electoral college will not vote for a 3rd party candidate.. the last time even a single vote was given to someone who was not part of the 2 party system was in 1988. Even Ross Perot who took 8 million votes was not given a single electoral vote.

Voting for either Johnson or Paul does only one thing: Lowers the total votes for Republicans and thus, causes Democrats to, by default, retain a higher percentage of the vote.

So when asking whether we vote Johnson or Paul I think that it comes down to what you want to say. Do you want to say "I'm pissed off at my party and the RINO they are forcing us to take against Obama" or are you saying "I'm pissed at both parties and this is my way of saying !@$ you all"

I think Paul hands down is the best choice for President.. I think Johnson is the best choice the Libertarian Party could have come up with. And the Libertarian Party has grown quite rapidly (I'm actually a registered Libertarian)

Sooo.... I don't know.. A Johnson/Paul or Paul/Johnson ticket would be awesome.. but with Pauls estranged relationship with the Libertarian Party it's never going to happen. Paul did say that he's very focused on "delivering the message" of Libertarianism .. and I think either a vote for him or Johnson would equally be effective in telling both the Republican Party and the country that "We are Libertarians, we need to be represented"

I don't know who I'll be voting for, but the Republican party will get a protest vote where it hurts them the most.
