This video is fact. Vote.

i'm not registered to vote

Felons:(aren't:(allowed:(to:(vote:(

I"m voting for Snoopy.

lol at the one white kid on the end.

at least they didn't put him in the middle

Aww... all those 9 year olds are morons I guess...

Those 9 year olds can't legally vote.

That's no excuse! Being dead hasn't stopped a lot of Democrats from registering.

I didn't watch the video.

I am choosing not to vote for a president.

Shouldn't we be advocating that morons don't vote? It's the morons who do vote that **** everything up.

If someone hasn't tried to educate themselves about what is going on, why is voting a categorical imperative for them? Wouldn't it be responsible NOT to vote? Wouldn't it be irresponsible to vote on things you have very shallow knowledge of, if any at all?

$5 says that the voting zealots also vote on district judges and have no fricken clue who they're voting for/against.

Somehow Americans got this idea of a direct election in their head, and most don't know/remember that the president is instead elected by the EC, not the people. So, when one does vote for Obama or McCain tomorrow, you're really just voting for electors that pledged their votes towards said candidates. Of course, from there it's pretty easy, in which they meet on a certain date (this year is 15th of December I believe?), and each cast a vote for a particular candidate based off the vote by the people on election day, and the winner of the outcome gets all electoral votes.

This is understandable logic for early American politics, for it protects the fundamental state rights to elect a president, and protect the lesser-populated states, and so forth.

Nowadays, people that do vote are typically ignorant party supporters, that is, "I'm Republican so I'll go out and vote for said Republican yarr" or "Democrats need me I don't want a Republican in charge again ugh!". However, such voters rarely fully understand how American politics work. Or, at least, should work.

So, to answer your question, no. The reason is the votes by the people really don't matter.

I'm voting for McCain just to cancel out SAJNs vote.

No.

But I am willing to sell my vote to a foreigner for $300.00 USD

Guys, CM is already doing that, if you all try to cancel out SAJN's vote, McCain would be president.

Pfft, American.

That man is clearly from Glasgow.

Fine, I'm canceling out fishstickz vote.

They're both like the same fat guy. I swear.

I know that if I didn't vote it wouldn't make a difference, but if half the people in the state didn't, it would. It's like picking up trash off the ground, or whatever

Except those individual idiots add up into a mass of idiots that do have an effect.

I'm still never voting for a democrat or a republican ever again.

3rd party all the way, man. It's totally a lost cause, but I really wish we'd have more viable choices than what ever the Democratic and Republican parties cough up every four years.

The more people who consider voting for a 3rd party candidate to be a legitimate thing to do, as you do, the more likely that is to happen

Electoral College

Im voting for obama because he represents change and change is good and so is hope and he represents that too!

That joke ceased to be funny (when it was first made) when I stopped being overweight.

Oh, so you've moved up to morbidly obese?

Quite a feat sir, I'm sure you're just raking in the fat chicks now.

Oh, Rob.

For all those who DON'T vote, why not just write-in a candidate or pick a third-party candidate that meshes with your views? Honestly, I cannot think of a reason not to vote. If people want third-party candidates to be recognized, sitting at home and *****ing won't change anything - which is why its good people like Obi_Kwiet are still voting.

Electoral College

wrong.

As retarded a system as it is, Timewolf is correct.

Due to extenuating circumstances I cannot leave the house for long periods of time -- and certainly cannot be amongst many people. However, despite having mailed in my voter registration and requested an absentee ballot, after a very long time I for some reason am still not registered nor have received my ballot and now I can't think of a way that I'll be able to cast my vote. I'm actually pretty pissed off about this. FDKA:Sjfkelawhg

RIGHT, unless you happen to live in a swing state.

Nub.

<3 Minnesota's easy voter registration samedayaselection

Hey Pommy; house arrest cannot be used to prevent you from voting. People in jail, who aren't felons, still get to vote.

I'm not under house arrest hahah.

Some kind of disfigurement?
