Simple quesiton need simple answer.
Right now I dont care if i ever vote again. if your gona steal it anyway whats the point? Voting is as effective as peeing on a spark plug. I am not into doing stupid things and getting the same result. I am tired of being played a fool. As if i ever had a say. I aint wasting my time anymore. In fact i cant believe i wasted my time posting this. As far as the ecomony goes here is my take. It doesnt matter who is in charge. If you want money you have 3 options. 1. earn what you can to get by and be happy 2. work harder and longer to keep your same level of living 2. steal what you want. "In this world you gotta take what you want" famous line from what movie?

I will always vote, no matter how useless it might seem.
My rule is that I don't want to listen to anyone's opinion if they didn't cast their vote!

I will always cast my vote anytime there is an election, too many people have put their lives on the line or died providing me with a voice to do otherwise.

I have another quesiton to ask for those who will vote again.
Do you feel like the Republican party just didn't get the vote out this last go around? What do you think about the 130 percent of voter turnout? What do you think about the Republican party not fighting for a recount? Wasnt there some agreement not allowing there to be a recount?

That's 4 questions. Now I have one for you. Why do you care what I think about any of those 4 questions?

Yes.
To make sure the election is not stollen again, a couple of things need to happen. Voter ID needs to be introduced and enforced. The vote needs to be limited to bona fide US Citizens. There need to be rules, enforceable, as to who is allowed in and around the polls on election day. No more strong arm enforcers. Vote monitoring needs to be fair. There needs to be a definite limit on how much money can be spent on campaigns. Probably a few more things, but that's for starters. |

Yes, I'll vote again... I would love to see a day when we can handle 100% voter turnout, and actually have 100% voter turnout. But, most likely I know it will never happen. My vote counted, just not as I thought it would.
As far as the election results... I believe everything in life happens for a reason. I cannot judge the outcome of the future until it becomes the past. I don't fear the future because I can only deal with what has already happened. I know how I would have liked the future to go, but don't know that my ideas would have been better then what is yet to come anyway. My faith frustrates me sometimes... ![]()

Sure will but I'm going to focus more on local elections and congress.
On the national level Congress is what we should all have been focusing on to begin with. F the presidents, they're all useless. |

I really lose a lot of respect for people that don't vote. Good men have given their all to see that we retain the rights we were given, it is such a waste if they are not used. Anything crooked that goes on during the count is secondary to that and should be dealt with as a separate issue.

1st point is; I understand exactly what your asking and why. I'm not sure everyone who posted understands what you mean.
2nd point; Going back to paper ballots, mandating ID for voting, and lastly making voter fraud a crime to be afraid of, would go along way in restoring my confidence. Untill these things happen; the U.S.A. will never have a fair and honest election ever again. Once these measures are implimented I will again participate in the voting process. Like I said originally, I don't think everyone understands. It's ok though, eventually they will, I just hope we have something left to save by the time everyone snaps out of it. We're in trouble friends, whether you understand me or not.

Absolutely, every chance I get.
Not to do so doubles the cheater's victory. If everybody who "gave up" after Bozo's first election hadn't, he probably wouldn't have been re-elected. |

If you vote you have a say, If you don't vote you got no room to bitch.

From some of the responses i see here I know what i was afraid of. The latest flavor of juice is called "Voter Fraud" We are a banana republic, I will not vote in a banana republic. Just cant bring myself to do it.

Just to let you know if you think you had a chance the last election, it will be worse next time. I see alot of people disillusioned with the last election. How do you explain 130% turnout to your kids? How do you explain the roten economy to your kids? How do you explain you did what you and everyone else was supost to and it didn't work to your kids? The questions are to make eveyone think. Because what we have now, our system as a whole is not working for us anymore. Its time for everyone to realise that and time to realise that to fix it is gona take more than pulling a lever. The lever doesn't work anymore so we have to get off our rumps and work real hard to restore the republic.

Of course I'm voting in every election. If you don't , you get what you deserve. I understand the fraud issues and we need to investigate these and try to insure honest voting and results in the future. We may lose that deal; but I will vote and do what I can.

The Fact is; Those who vote in a voting system that they KNOW is fraudualant are LEGITIMIZING AND CONDONING that their voting system is fradualant.
If someone were to say "no" I will not participate in your rigged game any longer, that person is doing more to try to re-establish what our country used to be. I respect anyone who disagrees with me. (even though that sentiment does not seem to be returned.)

I am not trying to disrespect any American here. Notice I said American. Because what has happened to us is due to UNAMERICAN action taken on us. I have the utmost respect for the souls that lie in those cemetaries who brought us the democracy and republic we had. We do no respect to them if we dont restore our republic. The fact that we lost this last election is the biggest slap in their face. If you cant see that then your in need of enlightment.
I wonder what they would say if they knew we allowed voter fraud? Think about that while you feel all vendicated that you vote. We were shammed, lied to, stolen from, given juice to drink, a magic flute to listen to. Now where do we go from here? You vote, i am not depending on that, didn't work out too well for me last time. I want something that will work. Now what?
