kungfubellydancer Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I am not responding to any specific person here, just the subject.... In my personal opinion, even though candidates can be bad or good in ways, if you live in the US you should vote. People fought in many ways for the right to, and I think we should probably respect what they were trying to accomplish and vote. Personally I have something I like and dislike about every candidate, but no matter how bad the candidates are, I'm going to vote regardless. I can make jokes and insult them all I want but nevertheless, voting is important. Ever seen the movie "Iron Jawed Angels"? It's a pretty well done HBO movie (I think its HBO) about the women who fought for the right to vote and what they had to go through, exaggerated or not. Even if fighting was easy for them, women fought nonetheless so I am going to take it as a personal obligation to keep their dreams from dying out. Even if you're not a woman, I think you get the picture. Just my opinion, please don't flame me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kungfubellydancer Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Exactly. Even if you can't take the candidates seriously, remember that one of them is going to be president, so you'll have to live with the consequences of not taking voting seriously.
