Or for Obama because he is (half) black.  Don't forget that one.

Voting for voting's sake is dumb.  If someone can't take the time to research where candidates stand on an issue then they don't deserve a voice in the matter.  The boob tube has caused elections to be decided by humor, wit and public speaking skills.  Initiatives are very important, too.  If you don't know what a measure is about, DON'T VOTE.  Voting YES is generally increasing taxes and passing bonds.  Do some research and get informed.  Stupid voters are far worse than those who stay home on election day.

God can you imagine the power of a candidate that was a Half-black MILF?   Unstoppable.

I'm Voting Half-Black MILF in 2012!

You're in the same camp as a lot of us. It's a painfully obtuse system.

On the night of the last presidential debate, I had to go to this god-fucking-awful get-together where a bunch of pissy old ladies sipping red wine screamed bloody murder every time McCain started to say something ( they don't like opinions that oppose their own, you see ). I couldn't hear a damn thing McCain said while my father and I simply exchanged knowing glances. Afterwards, I was able to hold higher-level conversation on why I was voting for Obama and brain-punished the rabid hags that wouldn't shut up. All they had were recycled, regurgitated garbage-quotes ripped straight from whatever pamphlets they were handed by that nice young man up on fifth avenue, oh how handsome he was he must be a good democrat boy.

I've heard that education is wasted on the young. I say it's the old that need the most updating.

I thought Pimp was already one of the supers. Huh.

Haha, so you can vote for Obama because he's black, or against McCain because of Palin, but not the opposite?  'cause I'm assuming the reason Obama is getting like 95% of the black vote because of his progressive policies to reform urban blight.  Because, you know, otherwise, you're gonna be doing a lot of shooting.

What about if I vote just because I'm from Europe and therefore better than anyone who can vote in the USA?

(I joke, we have a huge number of idiots here, moreso because of more countries lol)

Fuck.  Yes.  That would be a president you wanna vote for.
But it won't be Michelle Obama, but then again she'd be the second wife of a political candidate to run wouldn't she?

Thanks everyone.  While I've done what I can behind the scenes for a good long while, it's time to step it up and get this community on the fast track. Keep in mind that I work full-time and am also helping to plan my wedding, so If it takes me a bit to get back to you please be patient. I will be on and off the forums as much as I can throughout the day. If you need/want to bring something to my attention, send me a PM, email me (BelligerentPimp@hotmail.com), and I will be setting my Blackberry up for IM tommorow.

Grats on the new position! (Can't believe I brought myself to say that to a buckeye fan)

Would surely vote if I was of the age though.

What's the difference between a "stupid voter" and a regular voter if they vote for the same person?

A regular voter casts his ballot for the person whose policies he believes in.  The stupid voter casts his ballot for the person who looks the best, or whose name he's heard a lot.  And if you pay any attention to state elections around the country, you'd know that name recognition is about 95% of the way to victory.  Draw your own conclusions.

(In case you can't tell, unlike WDF I don't support voting simply for voting's sake, if you're not willing to cast an informed vote)

Electoral College.....

Research your local laws, Senators, and Congressman. They run the country, not just a popular vote that has no actual value in our electoral system. While voting on the ballot, please please please take the time to do the important stuff.

Obama is only 6% black tyvm.  And I will not vote for a white man, so *phtttt*

That said, since Maryland is going blue anyway (By 20%) I'm voting for Bob Barr, just for fun.

Besides our Reps all suck, but they'll get back in anyway.

Methinks its time for some new admin to replace those egotistical ones entrenched against any criticism.  (On behalf of Badhorsie)
