I'm planning to. The democrats and the republicans are joke to me. I just feel like I'm voting for all the same people. The only difference it, it seems like, between the two parties is that the democrats lie and pretend as if they care about you while the republicans are more honest about their goals.
It's like no mater who you vote for, in the end, the politicians and the resident will bow down to the corporate oligarchs who are really running this country.
Anyways, I wanna vote for a third party candidates. I looked at some people from the peace and freedom party. Looks interesting.
What about you guys?

I'm definitely planning to. There are a lot of legitimate third party candidates out there that, unfortunately don't get the recognition that they deserve simply because they the don't have friends in higher places that pay them obscene amounts of cash!
Man, I wish money would be kept out of our government.

Man, I wish money would be kept out of our government. yeah, definitely, I always thought that people running this nations should be treated like volunteers who care about people and their country ya know and not get paid ya know? If money was completely out of the political system I think you would legitimate people running for office and not just a few crazies who want to make a couple bucks.

I agree with you DaHound. I also think that by taking the money out of politics, elections become less of popularity contest and more of legitimate election. I also believe that campaign ads should be abolished. Instead of focusing on the issues and facts, all campaign ads do is manipulate people's emotions.
