Great thing about America, you can move! While I agree that there is a great deal of corruption going on (not just in our gov't mind you) that needs to be put aside. Its the American peoples responsability to keep infomrmed on things, and make educated votes.Originally Posted by DarkLadyNyara
I personally hate the valley girl "Oh my god, I like totally gotta vote... I think bush is Sexy, I will put a happy face in this box and...finegold in here.. what's a senator"
*Bipper walks by slapping his forhead.*
Its like that VOTE or DIE campain that pdiddy and Paris Hilton did. You know, then Paris forgot to vote. Does that mean she must die? I vote yes...
Anywho, It is great that people decide to vote and all; I just think it is useless to vote when you read a few pamplets that were dropped on your step. It is the job of every individual to research the offices that they can vote for, and learn of all the canidates, and learn there platforms indeapth.
Less money needs to be spent on getting hollow votes into the booths, and start getting more (neutral) sources of infomration out there. I think if there was a sweet website which really disected each canidate unbiastly, that would be a great start.

In short, you can and cannot blame every individual for America's mistakes. A man at work said that he doesn't vote unless a politician seems to be telling the truth. He voted once for a local assembly man whos platform he loved. The trick is, if he makes a guess, he has a 50% chance (assuming there are two canidates) of negating a smart vote. He then said that most politicians lie anyways, so voting is trial and error.
I laughed, but there is some sad truth to that.
