did you vote?

hurray! im a guest! · Tue Nov 02, 2004 10:43 pm

nothing political, just yes, no , or underage, or a criminal(

) but just in general, it is important!!! also, on another note, there was an awesome reference to HALO on the daily show(not just gratuatis game footage, but john stewart actually said halo and mentioned the alien covenant!)

i guess this will die because nobody really cares...so prove me wrong

Well I did I couldnt let somthing terrable happen as a result of me not voting.

Also Halo was shown as Halo2 is coming out, thats my guess anyway.

Yes I voted and The two party system sucks.

We have 50 contestants (one from each state) competing for the miss America pageant and we only have 2 people who were allowed to debate for the presidential race? Thatâ€™s just a bunch of BS.

What about nader and some of the other presidential candidates? I bet they would debate more if their parties had as much money as the democrat or republican ones.

It's all about money. Ross Parrow(sorry about the misspelling) proved that if you have enough money you can have a voice.
It shouldn't be about money if someone is on the ballot in at least 40 states, they should not only be allowed to debate, they should be required to debate along with the democrats and Republicans.

I'm registered non-partisan because I too believe the two party system sucks. Just vote for who you agree with, or in this years election, the lesser of two evils.

yep, the lesser of 2 evils is something that was quite important this election

Theres a reason the other parties dont debate is the contry is majority Republican and Demicarat, we havent had many (only one to my knowlege) independent party president, and only 1% in congress. This is how it has been, how it is, and untill the two parties make a big screw up thats how I for see it being in the future.

here's something I learned today: even though the third party candidates will never get elected, they can change things. for example if a third party candidate gets maybe 10% of the vote or are becoming a bit more popular then the other candidates (Republican and Democrat) will try to have that certain candidate's mindset on whatever the new popular issue is so that they will get that 10% back. so the third party candidate basically gets his issue addressed.
