Voting in the next election...YES OR NO...... email this discussion to a friend?

ghstldy777 (24)3 months ago

Is it just my husband and me, or is anyone else having serious thoughts about not even voting??? We have always voted in the past, but this time We CAN'T vote for either one of the candidates!!! We just don't feel comfortable with either one! We really can't imagine any of these people running our country. Sorry, we don't mean to offend anyone out there. Let us know what you're really thinking out there. Because we want to know if we are missing something here.....

Whatever you do, it's all up to you. If you don't feel comfortable voting for either one, then don't. How about Nader? Do you agree with the things he has to say? I hope this didn't come across as rude, because that's not how I meant it to be. What I meant is...that's the great thing about being an American...freedom of choice. I really wanted Clinton to be in it, but since she's not, the one I do agree with most is Obama, so he's the one I'll be voting for.

No you don't come across as rude, you're fine! I have had others talk about Nader, and honestly I have not read up on his stands, but I should...I just don't feel comfortable with either one. Maybe it is just us!?! I have listened to Obama speak, and I do like what I hear and he comes across as being very sincere. But the job seems to be a lot tougher now with so many things having to be "fixed" than we have ever had before, and I just don't know if either "side" is going to be able to handle it correctly. I don't know.......

Hello there ghstldy.
For me, voting is a right. I'll always exercise my right to vote. As one essayist say, Voting is the foremost way to exhibit good citizenship and civil responsibility. It is a patriotic act and everyone should participate. By voting, a person conveys that sense of patriotism that he/she cares enough about the direction of the country to exercise the power available to millions and millions of people to make their voices heard.
Everyone should recognize the importance of voting and act accordingly. Rather than just sit back and complain when something the government does isn't in your best interest. Eligible voters who refuse to do so have absolutely no right to complain when they did nothing at all to protect their interests when they have that exact power.

I believed in the author and I hope, too, that it won't offend you.
As to who I will vote, well, it's my choice and there's somebody there whose worthy.
Have a nice day!happy
