my vote is gonna go to one ms. cynthia mckinney this november. i don't agree with that bullshit that a vote for a third-party candidate is a waste. to me, the only wasted votes are the ones that aren't cast. i think the point of an election should be to vote for the person that most closely represents your ideals. i mean, what the fuck, i can walk into a starbucks and can choose to have my coffee made in about 157 different ways, but when it comes to who is going to be the president of this country, i am supposed to believe that i can only choose between two people? fuck that shit, man.
don't get me wrong, there are SOME things i like about barack. his domestic policy is obviously superior to mccain's, in my opinion. and mccain is a giant turd, whose shittiness is only overshadowed by one mrs. sarah palin (shit, i'm pretty sure that woman is not human). but i'm not really feeling barack at all in terms of his foreign policy, and those issues are important, too. dude is still about expanding the military and extended US power and spouts the run of the mill politician bullshit about the US being the greatest country in the world. and he's all over the israeli government's nuts. all total minuses in my book.
either he is being sincere about what he says (and i don't agree with him), or he is just saying what's expected of him as a politician (in which case i don't appreciate his disingenuousness).
the end, dudes.
ps. and, yes, i know cynthia mckinney has about as much chance of winning the election as i do of getting pregnant with god's baby, but that's not the point.
