VOTE Today!!! - Cidien - 11-02-2004
I voted at 10:30. I live in North Dakota so it took me about 20 minutes total to vote. And not everyone needs to vote. Go vote if you have informed yourself on the candidates. Otherwise ignore MTV and stay home...
That's just what we need, a bunch of ignorant buffoons going out to vote. Thanks MTV, man I wish they would raise the voting age. I'd gladly give up my right to vote if all the other douches my age lost their right. (although I support the right for people in the military to vote at 18, i'd like it raised to 25 for civilians)

if I could vote, I absolutely would. Too bad I can't yet. Although it's said that 1 out of every 10 voters are people who've never voted before. That's a LOT of people to want to get involved suddenly in the election. I guess all those Choose or Loose campeigns had some good effects.

Can you and I have any more divergent viewpoints on the world?
The military is the LAST group of people I want making world decisions. I would prefer that they didn't get to vote at all and merely be a tool for the government to use. The military is trained for violent confrontation which is something I accept as a necessary precaution. What I don't want to see is someone with that as their main focus of training setting public policy. I believe the old saying goes that when your only tool is a hammer every problem starts looking like a nail.
I do agree that people should be educated to the options before making a choice. Just making a choice because someone else told you to is defeating the purpose. It's important to look at the world around you and decide what you think is important in life.
For me, it's important to do everything possible before resorting to any form of violence. I do recognize the potential for a threat that can't be dealt with in any other manner but I would like that to be an absolute last option.
