Vote. But only if you have a goddamn clue.
The last thing I want is a bunch of idiots watering down my vote. So if you’re going to vote for Bush because you have a soft spot for his father or Gore because you liked your Jewish friend’s mother’s cooking, just stay home.
On the other hand, if you do plan on voting, make your choice an informed choice.
Find your candidate.
My results came out as follows:
88 David McReynolds
80 Ralph Nader
72 Albert Gore Jr.
…
18 George W. Bush
17 Patrick J. Buchanan
12 Alan Keyes
I’m amused the Socialist candidate got 8 more of my points than Nader, whom I’ll actually be voting for. Don’t let the Republican/Democrat monopoly fool you, voting your conscience is never a “wasted vote” - a third party only needs 5% of the vote for nationwide ballot access and the matching funds the corporate parties consider their birthright.
