Who do you plan to vote for?

What if you think that ALL parties have positions you consider evil? I want there to be Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, and Greens (to name the top 4) all represented, and empowered, in government - to run interference on each other. At the moment, the most important step is to remove the Republican stranglehold, which Badnarik has no chance of doing.

Well, it looks like Kerry's talk show appearances are helping him to look human in flyover country.
according to the polls, Bush lost 99 electoral votes since yesterday.

It's all in the lean of the latest polls, but it is fun watching those sites swing to and fro. Here are two more.

I know which box I'm putting my ticket into.

I know which box I'm putting my ticket into also. But you have the wrong prizes setup.

Here's what you're really voting for.

Box #1 - Badnarik: 5% chance at freedom, prosperity, security, and liberty for you and your children

Box #2 - Kerry: 45% chance of being beaten severely and gang raped by thugs followed by a lethal injection.

Box #3 - Bush: 50% chance of your mother being anally raped in front of you, being raped by AIDS infested prison inmates, being tortured to death, being revived, and then getting the electric chair.

I'm voting for freedom, anything else is insane.

How many decades ya gonna give it?

Well it took 200+ years for evil to screw things up this bad, I think 32 years is just the start. Also there are more than 600 elected libertarians right now and that number is growing.

I'd be willing to bet we'll either have a libertarian controlled congress and the freedoms that go along with it before I die, or we'll have complete totalitarianism and America will no longer have sovereignty because we'll be part of a larger government.

If you vote for anyone other than a Libertarian, you're voting to have the latter of those.

We are running for presidency and until this year we'd been on the ballot in all 50 states and D.C. but this year the exclusionary tactics of the Republicans and Democrats have kept us off in New Hampshire (supposedly a state that welcomes liberty) and Oklahoma which we're still in court over. We're still on in more states than anyone else including Nader.

Libertarians run at all levels of government and should continue to do so to stay in the public eye. We're not going anywhere.

That is necessary but not sufficent.
