i thought we were supposed to vote for the person who would do the best job, not what fits into your pseudo-binary PR constructs? Absolutely. I usually stay out of political threads that aren't where they belong, but I'm sick of the idiot's mantra of "you're throwing your vote away". What kind of effect would it have if several million people cast their vote for a third party candidate. In the past century it had a major effect when third parties received considerable votes, it scared the major parties into making major changes to their direction and platform. There are several candidates on the write-in ballot. If they filed to be there, in most cases they will be on the write-in ballot for your state and all one has to do is ask, but considering how uneducated the average American voter is...... Almost $50T in commitments over the next generation. US GAO admits that either the government is going to have to renege or increase income taxes by 200% to keep the house of cards from caving in. Vote Obama and you're just trading one form of out-of-control government spending for another. Where's he going to get all this money to do this stuff, Obama people? The rich? You can only get so much blood from a stone. Nothing will change. the SS Titanic will still be taking on water. Maybe in four years everyone will realize that Giant Douche and Turd Sandwich don't have any answers nor the fortitude to make the hard decisions that have to be made.

Les Claypool, Bootsie, Flea (well, before he became Kris Novoselic), Larry Graham, Bernie Worrell (if we're counting synth bass), the guy from Duran Duran, The Smith's bassplayer, Peter Hook.
