To those who say voting for a third party/independent is a wasted vote

"Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost. " -- John Quincy Adams

But, then, what did the founding fathers of this country know? They were too busy establishing a free country. reading, and putting their beliefs and fortunes to use. What are our current leaders doing? Think about that one for a while.

I'll vote my heart and rest easy knowing I voted for what I know is right for our country.

In this election it is too important not to vote for OBama the socialist whose only answer for every concern is more government programs with no idea how he is going to get the funding to pay for it all or McCain who is the most left leaning republican presidential candidate in history who has no concern for a republican government.  Obama or McSame.  Feel free to think that there is a difference, but mark my words when I say there is nearly none.  They will both get this country to the same destination, just one slower than the other.

If everyone in this country voted what they truly believed then we wouldn't have a two party system, there wouldn't be the phrase; "lesser of two evils;" and we wouldn't have apathy during elections.


Of course, of more relevance, if the federal government was bound by the chains of the Constitution the election of President would be pretty unimportant anyway...  The election of Governor and Mayor would be what you cared about.
