the problem is it takes to much money to get elected by the time a politician gets in office he owes so many people favors for getting elected he can not be his own person.

I Disagree My state representative Now knows that I will be voting against him in the next election and I will be trying to have my friends and family do the same. If enough people did what I did it would make a diferance.

If we quit every time we didn't get our way we would never get our way

I'm not advocating quitting.

Go ahead and vote. I plan on doing it. When enough people decide the whole voting thing isn't working anymore then you can just come join the revolution.

Well, I can think of one:

1- You could vote for someone other than Obama. Maybe.
2- uhh...

I clearly need to invest in a pitchfork before the election comes any closer.

What the heck? The day just started, I haven't give one person props, and I'm somehow out? dUSt has to be working with Obama or something...

Honestly, I do not think a revolt is impossible at this point. If Obama gets elected again I do not think he'll last a year before the country takes him by storm. I'm certainly not going to stand around while he ruins the country. If he gets elected the time for democracy is over. Our choice then is to move on because the country will never survive, or fight. Ireland is looking pretty good about now...

FP - those who don't have a CM tag only get 5 props (I think) per day.

That can't be possible. I've given tons of them in one day. It's probably about ten or fifteen.

Church Militant Tag. I wish I could get one, but unfortunately these grownups are mean and won't let us have them unless we are eighteen. :cry:

If you show you are true to the Church's teachings and have displayed that you will defend it when the occasion arises. Then, a Church Militant must recommend you. I'm not sure about the rest, but I think dUSt has to review your history to make sure you are 100% on Church teachings. I'm not sure, though.

There's no reason to get annoyed about it. I'll just have to count the next time I get props and I'll tell you if you haven't found out yet.

Well, after thinking over, I have come up with at least [i]some [/i]positive reasons to vote. First, Romney is a businessman, and though he is a bit shaky on economics, he will not spend near as much, in my opinion. Second, as for health care, though I do not agree with any health care plan run by the government, he does have a pretty solid argument for himself. He said that, although he did make Romney care, there is a difference between a state making a health care plan and the president of the United States making a nation-wide health care plan that everyone must use, otherwise they will be fined. He did state the first thing he would do is repeal Obama care, and if he goes through with this I will be pleased, though I will eye him suspiciously throughout his presidency. Finally, he has had a job, which Obama never has, and he does seem to have a big healthy family, which speaks well for him.
