I believe in voting _for_ a candidate...not against one.

Of course, that's democracy.Unfortunately, we're dealing with reality. A vote for anyone other than the two main candidates is a wastepaper vote, since none of the others have any chance of getting elected. And every wastepaper vote is a boost for the incumbent, since it's one less vote for his only genuine opponent.

Well,I disagree.
I will vote for who I WANT to have as president. And maybe someday our bullshit system of voting will be overhauled so the people will be better represented.
I personally don't like the idea of a federal president. I think government should be concentrated on the local and state level. Libertarians feel the same way and I used to be all about voting that way, but I recently foundout about their free-trade and immigration policies so now I'm not going to vote for them. Now I'm just blabing... sorry.
