...my Composite Character is tied between these two:
* Texas Representative Ron Paul ( R ) - 93.48%
* Ohio Representative Dennis Kucinich ( D ) - 93.48%
This whole test is a crock because there is no true libertarian option with many of the questions. The choices they offer for some of the questions are:
-- government badness colored RED
or
-- government badness colored BLUE

Samuel, the people who don't commit crimes did what people should do, not commit crimes. That's nothing like refusing to vote for a candidate who then goes on to lose to an even worse candidate.

You complain about bush being a moron, what about that small group of people who could have made us have a President Gore instead if they actually went and voted?
I can kind of understand where Samuel is coming from. I never voted until Anderson ran. No other candidate before or since had me as fired up as he did. All the time of not voting, I remeber as a kid my mother letting me stay up past bedtime on a school night to watch the returns of the Kennedy elections and I thought then, I can't wait to vote. Lately it's been voting the worst of two evils. I wish I would get fired up with this years campaign......I miss that feeling of passion.
Don't vote, 1Samuel8. It just means that my vote counts more. Thanks

No it isn't. If just a small percentage of the non voters got off their backsides and voted against Bush he would not have got in at the last election.

Well kicking out my top two responses since they don't have a snowballs chance in hell, it's Clinton and Edwards in a dead heat followed by Obama, which is about where I am, though I like Edwards more the Hillary.
As to Samuel's lament, I think a lot of Republicans will stay home. Rudy has a lot of moral baggage; Romney's has an odd religious background that the Right will not embrace and has some moral baggage;McCain is to much like Bush and Thompson's baggage both moral and political will sink him before December '07.
So many Republicans, instead of voting for someone they don't support/like, will simply stay home...just like they did in '06.

Don't vote, 1Samuel8. It just means that my vote counts more. ThanksYou are the biggest fool of them all.
Your vote means nothing. Sorry, my mistake! Your vote makes 0.0000000000001% of a difference. Bush did not need your vote. If you stayed home, the results of that election and every other election in which you wasted your effort would have been exactly the same. Think long and hard about that.
Samuel, the people who don't commit crimes did what people should do, not commit crimes. That's nothing like refusing to vote for a candidate who then goes on to lose to an even worse candidate. Absurd.
I do not support any of the candidates in that election but you are telling me to vote for one anyway.
You complain about bush being a moron, what about that small group of people who could have made us have a President Gore instead if they actually went and voted?Ridiculous.
Gore is a moron too.

If you don't care, why rail against the machine?
To be honest just a few, 100K or less then 1% more of the population, in a few key states voting for Gore, or all those who voted for Nader voting for Gore (who was closer Nader's position then Bush's) and we'd have had POTUS Gore.
But I just don't understand why you would actively call people out and complain about people voting...
