Just Vote!
With the upcoming elections here in the US and Canada. I urge people to vote. You give up to much of your rights by standing on the wayside.
Have a great day.

Re: Just Vote!
absolutely. if you can't decide who to vote for, no matter republican or democrat, at least vote for a change that you'd like to see.
there's too much at stake for you and your family to sit on the sidelines and watch the world pass you by.

Re: Just Vote!
Vote for what...Same **** over and over, and i hate the people that say if you don't vote you can't complain...not only are your complaints never answered by those who do vote...your candidates don't care to hear them. So yes keep voting for what you get now...my vote is for something different all together...

Re: Just Vote!
I like to tell people this when they tell me that his or her vote won't matter.
In the 2000 election the state of Florida decided who was persident. Didn't Bush beat out Gore by like under 2000 votes, it could even have been something like 1000 votes. Anyway, I would bet a years pay that at least 2000 people who would have voted for Gore didn't vote, and 50% of them said that their one vote didn't matter.
Go vote people!!! your vote matters!!!!

Re: Just Vote!
Well if you really think about it you would need to get rid of every single politician and replace it with others. Then in years passing it will be corrupt again. Give some one a position that gives them power and money ans see what they will do with it. Basically, there is only a few good ones, but the rest give them all a bad name.
A person is not born with ill intent in his or her heart it is the path that they chose that brings them to there outcome.

I agree most people just listen to the commercials and smear campaigns. The normal person needs to take some time out of their busy life and look at who and whom will help/benefit them.

Re: Just Vote!
You really think Al Gore would have been better then Bush...The dude is still pushing his global warming bs...when you have highly skilled and extremely educated scientist from CERN, saying its not global warming its just a climate shift...Vote all you want, not saying do not...just maybe not voting might show we want more change and were not happy with anybody currently in the position to lead us...Have you seen that **** that wants to lead the liberal party in canada...i want to punch him in the face everytime he talks...

Re: Just Vote!
I live in florida and I have tried the best to stay up to date with the Canadian politics. I have lots of family in Canada and the UK and they all have a different view of the candidates. I still think that everyone should vote and let yourself be herd even if you think you vote doesent count. Granted in the US with electotoral votes a single vote does not count but in quantity it does. I think if they changed to every vote count, more people would vote and think that it counted.

I wasn't saying Gore was Better then Bush. That was not my point. My point was to go vote, and to think that your vote counts!!! I was using the Florida election as an example
