For me, this election isn't about winning. Obama is going to get a 2nd term. The media has guaranteed this. This election is about planting seeds. Then, once this country goes even more down the sh*tter, maybe people will remember guys Like Gary Johnson and Ron Paul and think, "Hey...maybe those guys weren't crazy like the media pundits said they were."
1st off...that's not gonna happen! Hell, they can't even seem to allow everyone that's ON a ballot the time necessary to complete an original thought on an issue. Most of the time both parties vie to exclude people from the D or R! There's NO WAY a 3rd or 4th party candidate is going to get on a stage with the "annointed" ones.
Your 2nd point is dead on. Rather than just sit it out, I'll vote for this guy. Just because. There's no difference with any of them except for one.
I'm not voting for the "lesser of 2 evils" ever again. Been there, done that. Seeing how it's going...what a long swirlling ride down the toilet this nation has taken since I've been alive. Just wow.
