In response to "If those are my choices I won't vote. -- nm" by Bacon

You should always vote. Always.

I don't need to give you a history lesson. Even if you don't like either one you owe it to a lot of people to go out do your civic duty. I take this very seriously and I expect every American to do the same.

Sorry for my rant but not voting makes me upset.

I disagree. if someone isn't engaged, informed, doesn't get its importance, etc., I don't encourage voting. -- nm - b. Mar 15, 15:30 4
- There are plenty of people who are engaged but not informed, and they still vote. -- nm - Roger More Mar 15, 15:36 3
  - sure, and there wasn't an "or" in there for me. I was saying what/when it is that I encourage. -- nm - b. Mar 15, 15:37 1
    - Yeah, I pressed 'post' before completing my thought. -- nm - Roger More Mar 15, 15:41
  - (So I tend to think that disengaged voters are also required to even things out a bit. But I'm from a country that has compulsory voting and things - Roger More Mar 15, 15:37
I will vote, I will not vote for president if it's between Sanders and Trump. -- nm - Bacon Mar 15, 15:23 8
- to what end? look at their platforms and pick. -- nm - andie Mar 15, 15:28 7
  - I hate both platforms. HATE!! I won't pick between two people that are going to send the economy into a trainwreck. - Bacon Mar 15, 15:30 2
    - alrighty, this I don't get. there are distinct differences. it's not choosing from two of the exact same. - b. Mar 15, 15:33 1
      - They are both extremes and I like moderation. It makes perfect sense to me. -- nm - Bacon Mar 15, 15:34
  - If nothing else, vote third part as a protest but don't not vote. -- nm - ty97 Mar 15, 15:29 3
    - Okay, now you have something. I could vote for the Libertarian or Green Party. Yes I can do that -- nm - Bacon Mar 15, 15:31 1
      - I honestly forget that there are more that two parties on every pres race. -- nm - Bacon Mar 15, 15:32
    - sure -- nm - andie Mar 15, 15:31
