    I like to bifurcate goverment as to taxes.

    Respectfully of course, you absolutely have that decision plus you as a free human select who to vote for.

    I could vote for let's say Netanyahu too but what good would that do? I could vote for Castro to run Cuba.

    Johnson never will take office in DC. I am saying it is as futile as me voting for the leader of France would be.

    You never struck me as a vote waster. I believe you have time to see when you punch, when you vote, when you select, that you may yet mark a vote for the winner rather than a person with zero chances.

    The only reason why he doesn't have a chance is because of rhetoric like this. I refuse to be a part of it. If you want to see changes YOU have to start with yourself. Spread the word.

    I entirely agree with you.

    I have looked at Gary as a candidate. He like all humans, me and you, have some flaws.

    I believe in the concept, do not tilt at windmills.

    Voting for Gary is tilting at windmills.

    While I believe he would make a very fine president, does the public believe that?

    Forget me. I study candidates.

    Study not me, nor persuade me, the public is who to aim at.

    Sure, you will say I am part of the public.

    Look, if he really is a champion, he will come out on top.

    I need to see evidence he is that champion who can come out on top.

    If he has a real chance, sure I plan to vote for him.

    At the moment, his chances are as good as no snow will come this winter. Sadly to say.

    Do you so much as see the news discussing him?

    I mean, honestly. Is his name all over TV?

    BTW, Trump is a game changer. Will he be an improvement on Obama. Well, .... Better than Hillary.

    I would never vote for Hillary Clinton. I don't trust her.

    I'm voting for nobody. "The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them." (Karl Marx) Ultimately, any option is a member of the bourgeoisie, who will keep nothing but their own interests in mind, no matter how much they tell us otherwise. Democracy under a capitalist society is nothing but an illusion to make the oppressed masses think that they actually have a say in things and to keep us under control.

    Maybe some of that is true but it's better than the alternative! We have lots of opportunities as well.

    Trump.

    It's 95% about closing the southern border for me, and putting a halt to Muslim immigration.

    Gary Johnson is for open borders and has zero chance.

    Bernie supporters should vote for Jill Stein, though. As payback for the rigged Dem primary.

    I don't care for all of Johnson's opinions on the issues, but I do agree with a lot of them, and he isn't Hillary or Trump! :)

    voting is a complete waste of time.Elections are rigged.contrary to what our corrupt school system has taught us we dont elect these people and put them in office,the establishment selects them for us and puts them in for us. whoever they want to be their puppet to serve their interests is the one they make sure gets elected. Hitlery is the one they want in,she WILL be the next POTUS,bank on it.

    that is all documented in the two books Votescam and Rigged.

    Gary Johnson I of course would like to see elected but the independent never gets elected since the establishment makes sure of that. He believes in the constitution so he doesnt have a prayer.

    I am not sold on Trump like I am on Johnson but he sure as hell beats the alternative in Hitlery. as far as we know he is not part of the new world order agenda to destroy america and start wars with other countries that The Bushs,Clintons,Obama,and Romney are all a part of and joined together to serve the interests of the bankers instead of the people. None of them believe in the constitution.

    Plus Trump understands the fed is americas real enemy and needs to be abolished that is why the establishment will make sure he is not the next POTUS.

    Anybody who tries to end the fed as Kennedy did,ends up paying the deadly price he paid for by doing so.



    I would prefer Trump to get elected because the alternative of Hitlery is a nightmare for america. We will just get the same old same old corruption of our government starting wars with her in office.

    We KNOW what we will get with her.ANOTHER mass murderer who will serve the interests of the bankers instead of the people so the alternative of Trump is a no brainer.

    He wasn't my first choice or my second but I'll vote for Trump. We have to keep Hillary from appointing another liberal goon to the SCOTUS, and we have got to undo that rotten nuke deal with Iran before they blow up the world for Islam. If they think they won't you should the Koran or just watch what muslims do when they get a chance to kill anybody who doesn't believe like they do.

    Yes there are third-party candidates, but they will never win because they don't have enough of a voting base as it is and the election is, in actuality, almost over. So the lesser evils in this case (oh it pains me to say it) is Hillary Clinton.

    Truly well said!

    If I was American rather than Canadian I am 95% certain that I would vote for The Donald......
    but I would have to leave myself five percent wiggle room...... just in case Hillary came out with
    some creative and courageous policies during the campaign that convinced me to change my vote?!


    For example IF Hillary were to..........

    Gary Johnson he is the only rational choice. Why should I pick the lesser of two evils when I have some one that is if not great then at least good?

    I will never vote for an anti-rights candidate (the second amendment particularly). If I had to choose between the two, it would have to be Trump. I happen to know that a LOT of people are going to be voting for Gary though. So, we shall see. :)

    Vote for Gary. Shake things up for the establishment! :woot:

    If you look like your avatar, I'd vote for you. Otherwise, I'm going to look at the Constitution Party. I might have to end up voting for Trump, but it will make me sick if I do.

    I don't know what would be funnier.....

    Wild Billy Bob Clinton shaking the hand of some leader of a foreign nation first before his wife as he pushed by her and say's...."YEEEHHHAWWW!!......I AM BACK BABY!!.....Oh...don't mine the Ol" Ball and Chain the little lady here can sit in the plane while you and me go out and score some chicks who dig Presidents!!"

    .....OR.....

    Trump sending a memo to each and every single member of Congress that say's...."YOUR FIRED!!"

    LOL!!

    Thanks because that IS me in my avatar. :thumbsup:

    If you want change, it has to start with YOU. Otherwise, you are saying that you are fine with the current duopoly and status quo.

    I was unfortunate enough to have to help Jim Jim Koplik of Jim Koplik and Shelly Finkel and help stop a RIOT started by Rage Against the Machine's singer...Zack De La Rocha at a large outdoor concert amphitheater in Hartford Ct. called The Meadows.

    LINK....http://articles.courant.com/1997-08-19/news/9708190334_1_pepper-spray-sod-la-soul

    Now if you read the article it say's that Rage Against the Machine's singer Zack De La Rocha was..."Very open"...to asking the crowd to calm down and stop damaging the property but the REASON he was open to it was because of this.

    He got off the stage and as I was backstage I yelled at him..."Why the F@#K are you riling them up even more?"

    Zack basically was inciting the crowd to begin with and they were tearing apart the seats and the seats arm rests...etc.....and Zack just kept egging them on.

    As Jim Koplik is my friend and because it's his money on the line I yelled at Zack who was just making things worse and Zack who is about as Ghetto as Barack Obama took exception to my..."In his own words....Disrespecting him.".....and he immediately charged me and found himself down on the back stage floor in less than a split second.

    His security came over and as they KNOW who and what I am....just picked him up and as they held him he began to thrash and swear how he was going to F@#K me up...etc.

    I looked at his Security People holding him..."BACK"....and just smiled and they smiled back as they pulled him back to his dressing room.

    I told one of his security guards a few things and after this message was conveyed Jim talked to Zack and Zack agreed to ask the crowd to calm down and stop destroying the venue.
