@pipersmitty87 Yes! Or "all" the candidates listed are sellouts, and filling in a "blank" is a meaningless vote anyways! (It doesn't matter anyways--I know many "voters" actually do so just to "go through the motions" and [supposedly] "be a good citizen" by "doing their civic duty/responsibility"! Ha, ha.
what if our candidate is out of the race (e.g. Ron Paul, Mike Huckabee). I'd write in their names (which would do no good) before I'd vote for the current 2 candidates. Want to vote on amendments, but candidates...well, mine are out now. My lack of a vote for either of those candidates IS a vote.
@ipwntehmagik So true, actually! Even registering, and turning in a blank ballot, is worth something in the sense of "political participating". It is, in theory, "counted" as a person who [not only registered to vote], but actually "voted in the election". You could even write "None of them" in the blank space (if you wanted to vote, that is).
Good video. I'm so proud of PEOPLE actually caring about politics. Furthermore, I am proud of black people for stepping up and standing behind not a black candidate- BUT A WELL QUALIFIED DESERVING BLACK MAN. However, the volume on the video is bad and thats why your not getting too many comments.
how about both candidates are sellouts, and I dont like either one.

IF voting worked it would be illegal!

@ruthshivani YEs! (if voting worked the 'idealized, direct democracy' style, that is).
