ok so he is in-experience. what about all these "highly experienced" political persons f***in up america??? why cant we give "the new guy" a chance? maybe it doesnt take experience...maybe sometimes experience will help screw you over?...havent we caught onto this yet? no really. think about all the "well trained" people in power and then think about our wonderful economy..and think about all the great jobs available (sarcasm of course)
and my vote stands @ none of the above. i havent watched the debates and followed the candidates close enough to vote. im a strong supporter of the theory that not voting is better than misplacing a vote.

then you have no right to an opinion. if your not going to vote, then you cannot complain about who gets elected. its your duty to pick a candidate and vote for them. you probably have different concerns than those of a 79 year old widow but shes gonna go vote. you better believe it. senior citizens turn out in droves to vote. maybe they know something you dont....maybe a lifetime of lessons has taught them that doing nothing is the worst thing you can do.

this is my first election im allowed to vote in. and like i said im not gonna bandwagon on my vote because people tell me its a good idea to vote for whoever. ill do my research and make an educated decision on who has my best interests. my previous statement wasnt a opinion directed toward any single individual. i was simply pointing out a flaw within his thinking (from my stand point) i fully understand the whole concept of if u dont vote dont complain who gets elected? now if i voted for someone and the other guy getss elected and screws up american worse. are we allowed to tell the people who voted for them how stupid they are?
sometimes the decision is going to be which is the lesser of two evils. in a situation like that you then have to decide do i vote for one of the two major partys or do i vote for an independent? if you dont want mccain elected for example voting for nader or whoever isnt neccessarily the way to see it happen. both mccain and obama will garner more votes and support than any independent so sometimes voting for the person who will gaurantee the person you dont want elected doesnt get your vote while making your vote count is the best option. if your district is heavily obama oriented and you dont like him voting 3rd party will not make a difference is essentially what im saying.
Thought I'd give a lil campaign trail updated... For some odd reason Obama has chosen the Toledo area to rest up for the last big debate. The other day he caught people by suprise when he came into Holland (about a mile from my house) and started knocking on doors... To answer the question nearly everyone is thinking "No he didn't knock on mine, at least as far as I know since I wasn't home anyway"... Like I woulda answered the door anyway lol
