Have not, and will not vote. - GoFuckYourself.com

Why? Because no matter what we do, whoever is running for any political position, they are only there for personal gain and don't give 2 shits about the people. Politicians are crooks.

I'm not voting because when said politician takes office, I don't have to be one of the guys who said "fuck, and I voted for this dip shit".

There's nothing we can do about it, unfortunately.

If everyone who said this voted for a third party candidate there would actually be a legit third party in this country. But it is easier to complain and do nothing about it.

Not complaining at all. You tell me 1 president or politician in the last 100 years who was really in office to better the country and not themselves?

Jimmy Carter. He failed as a president but he wasn't in it for himself.

One way to verify this is that he has done more real good as an ex-president than probably the last 10 presidents combined.

I think he's done this to make up for his presidency;)

I undestand your position entirely but you really should remember that it is the First Amendment which will allow you to continue to rail against a political system in which you do not participate. There are politicians running out there who seek to limit your First Amendment rights and by your refusal to participate in the process, you have given them tacit approval to erode your civil rights.

Myself, I voted a straight ticket, voted "No" for rentention of all judges and voted for an amendment to the Kansas Constitution guarranteeing the Right To Bear Arms for self defense.
